Plia Chair - Transparent

When it was presented in 1967 at the Milan Furniture Fair, the chair received such acclaim from the public that many visitors left the stand, taking the ones on display with them. As a consequence of this unorthodox compliment, the chairs were tied to the stand with a chain. Thanks to Plia and his study on the “three-disc pivot”, thus revolutionizing the concept of the folding chair, Giancarlo Piretti has gone down in history with the nickname of “Thonet of the 20th century”. Available in different colors, from the steel frame to its seat and backrest, it even boasts a version in Vienna straw stretched over a solid wood frame, capable of further enriching an icon of all-Italian style.
