About the Item
These cantilever dining chairs by Gianni Moscatelli for Formanova capture the confident, industrial elegance that defined Italian furniture design of the 1970s. Their distinctive steel frame, engineered with a sharp, architectural silhouette, creates a floating effect that enhances both comfort and presence. Newly upholstered in a soft mohair, the seats and backs introduce warmth and tactility, offering a refined counterpoint to the cool precision of the metal. The combination highlights Moscatelli’s talent for balancing material clarity with sculptural form. With eight chairs available, the set is well-suited to long dining tables or contemporary commercial interiors seeking coherence and sophistication. These restored pieces present an iconic study in Italian modernism, revived for enduring use. With Dedar mohair velvet.
