Designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina in 1960, the Carimate was originally created for the Golf Club at Carimate in Como. A sophisticated fusion of Scandinavian influence and Italian craftsmanship / beechwood structure with warm red aniline lacquer, a technique Magistretti borrowed from toy manufacturing to bring a new dimension to furniture. The high slatted back and woven rush seat are immediately distinctive. A genuinely iconic piece of Italian mid-century design.

Sourced from Ken Neale, Sydney. Listed price is for both chairs as a pair.

MEASUREMENTS / Approx. 75–78 H x 58–60 W x 50–52 D cm / Seat Height: approx. 44–46 cm (Handmade, slight variation expected)

MATERIALS & COLOUR / Red lacquered timber frame / Woven rush seagrass seat / Last image: Lined up outdoor image most accurate colour in outdoor light. 

CONDITION / Good vintage condition with minor chipping and scuffing to the lacquer consistent with age and use. One seat has been re-woven, because of this slightly different tone in seagrass but would even with time. The older seagrass has some gapping & is a darker tone.
