Set of 4 Gastone Rinaldi Chromed Steel Dining Chairs for RIMA, Italy, 1970s
By Gastone Rinaldi, RIMA
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Designed by Gastone Rinaldi for RIMA in the 1970s, this set of four Space Age chromed steel chairs epitomizes Italian modernism at its sleekest. With fluid cantilevered frames and sculptural wire-form seats, these chairs reflect Rinaldi’s fascination with futuristic lines and ergonomic clarity. Their lightweight, minimalist aesthetic nods to the Bauhaus tradition while embracing the optimism of the Space Age movement.
The gleaming chrome-plated steel construction is both strong and sculptural, with a continuous bent-tube form that adds a dynamic visual rhythm to any interior. Equally compelling as a full dining suite or styled individually.
No cushions are included however seat and back cushions can be crafted easily for this set. Contact us for details.
These Rinaldi chairs are perfect in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age, Italian Modern, Postmodern, or Contemporary interior — but also create compelling contrast in Industrial, Transitional, or Minimalist settings.
Incredibly versatile in use: ideal as dining chairs, side chairs, café chairs, game chairs, breakfast table chairs, occasional chairs, office guest chairs, or entryway and hallway chairs. Their sculptural form and light footprint make them an excellent option for retail displays, conference or meeting room chairs...

T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings for Saridis Klismos Chairs in Walnut with Leather Thongs
By Saridis, T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings
Located in St. Louis, MO
Single T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings Klismos chair for Saridis of Athens, Greece in Greek walnut and leather woven seats.
This chair was part of the collection he designed for Saridis of Athens in 1961, inspired by the drawings he saw on ancient Greek vases. The Klismos chairs features a graceful curving back and sable curved legs. The woven seat is made of leather straps / thongs which are tight around the walnut frame. The design beholds Robsjohn-Gibbings’ philosophy of furniture design that is independent of time.
Manufacturer's metal label DESIGNED BY T.H.ROBSJOHN-GIBBINGS / Manufactured by saridis of athens. Serial # 9544 &.
Please note that the item has been lightly restored by restoration atelier. Some signs of age and use are still visible.
This chair model is notably documented on the cover of "Furniture of Classical Greece," written by Robsjohn-Gibbings and Carlton W. Pullin in 1963.
We love what Pilar Viladas said about this iconic design in the New York Times in 2010:
"T. H. Robsjohn-Gibbings’s Klismos chair looks ancient and modern at the same time — because it is. Based on ancient Greek models, which had been widely copied in the 18th and 19th century, Robsjohn-Gibbings’s version made the klismos shape famous again in the 20th century. Obsessed with its elegant lines, he designed versions of the chair throughout his career, but the most recent examples have been made by Saridis in Athens since the early 1960s, when the designer met the company’s owners and settled in the Greek capital. Its simple but opulent curves hint at sleek penthouses with butlers who serve cocktails on the terrace at sunset. (Indeed, Robsjohn-Gibbings’s Saridis...
