Six High-Back Dining Chairs in the Style of Giuseppe Rivadossi, Italy 1970s

Offered by: AtKris Studio

Description
Introducing a sculptural set of six high-back dining chairs, reminiscent of the raw elegance often found in Italian Brutalism. Executed in the style of Giuseppe Rivadossi, these chairs reveal a distinct sensitivity to material and form.

Design
Crafted from solid teak, each chair carries a strong architectural silhouette, balancing visual weight with intricate detailing. The tall, rectilinear backrests are punctuated with subtle relief carvings—each unique—adding a tactile rhythm to the otherwise monolithic profiles. Joinery is exposed and celebrated: square pegs and mortise details emphasize the hand-built nature of the construction. The legs are robust yet taper subtly, connected by strong horizontal supports that lend additional structural integrity. Beneath the seat, a carved apron introduces a quiet play of shadow and depth. The seats are slightly angled, creating a dynamic line that enhances both comfort and posture. From above, the slim profile of the backrest reveals the careful chamfering and soft curvature of the wood grain.

A composed and deliberate design, these chairs exude a calm presence that speaks through their construction and proportion. They are not loud pieces, yet they command attention through their quiet gravity.

Condition
The set remains in solid condition, showing only minor wear consistent with age and use. Surfaces are clean, joints are tight, and the wood has retained a rich, warm tone throughout.

We also have the matching dining table available.
