About the Item
Mid-Century Modern Giancarlo Piretti Chairs for Castelli in Forest Green Fabric, Italy, 1960s
A striking example of Italian modernist design, this mid-century chair by Giancarlo Piretti for Castelli encapsulates the minimalist yet functional elegance that defined the design ethos of the 1960s. Crafted in Italy, this piece features a beautifully contoured seat and backrest upholstered in forest green fabric, supported by a robust white enameled metal frame. Its clean lines and purposeful design make it an icon of utilitarian sophistication.
The chair exemplifies Piretti’s design philosophy—versatile, stackable, and ergonomically conscious—making it equally suitable for both residential and commercial interiors. The seat’s molded silhouette provides comfort without excess, while the angled legs and refined joint details highlight Italian precision engineering.
With its muted green tone and lightweight structure, this chair blends effortlessly into a variety of interiors, from modernist dining rooms to contemporary workspaces. The aluminum connection joints—typical of Castelli’s engineering—enable the chairs to be linked side by side, a clever feature originally intended for conference and institutional use.
Dating to the 1960s, this piece bears the authentic wear of time, with visible traces of use that only enhance its character and story. It stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of mid-century Italian design and the functional artistry of Giancarlo Piretti.
Whether displayed individually as a sculptural statement or used in multiples around a table, this chair offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of design history. Sold as a set of 6.
