Description

Predominantly an accomplished architect, Botta designed a range of furniture for the company Alias during the 1980s. The Seconda chair is perhaps one of his most iconic pieces. This set of early period produced chairs are, like most of his designs, are made from metal tubing, flat bar and folded perforated sheet metal. It also features a cylindrical cog like foam back rest which is really comfortable.

These silver versions have signs of age to their frames and seats but are in good vintage condition. Four black 1982 versions are available in another listing.
