White 'Gaudi' chair by Vico Magistretti for Artemide, collector's item early model from the 1970s Space Age era, vintage

Iconic 'Gaudi' chair designed by Vico Magistretti and manufactured by Artemide, Italy. Named after Antonio Gaudi.

One-piece chair made from a mold made from polyester resin reinforced with fiberglass to resist heat and scratches. The shape is indicative of Magistretti's emphasis on material. New technologies and production methods allowed him to experiment with more expressive and sculptural geometries.

Please note that this is not one of the newly produced editions, but one of the earlier productions of the 1970s, easily recognizable by the signature "Patent Pending" under the chair.
Therefore, the chair is in good condition overall, fully functional and usable - but does show visible signs of age and use - fading and darkening, scratches and scuffs on the surface and a surface crack on one of the legs - all highlighted in the photos.

The price will be adjusted according to the condition.

However, it is one of the most iconic and beautiful pieces, a design and product design icon that fully exploits and reinvents the design possibilities of processing and manufacturing furniture with molded plastic.

We try our best to accurately depict any imperfections in our photos. Please feel free to contact us for additional photos.
