Description

This is a set of eight Mandarin Chairs, designed by Ettore Sottsass and produced by Knoll in 1986. The listed price includes one chair, and we have eight available for purchase in this colorway. These examples show the production date of 1993. They have sculptural, black enameled-steel arms, and have an upholstered seat & back in a geometric patterned fabric. It’s all about the arms on these chairs... unmistakably Sottsass.

Each chair measures 21 inches deep, 26 inches wide, and is 32 inches high. They have a seat height of 18 inches. Their enameled-steel arms show some scuffs to the surface, and the upholstery fabric shows very slight fading. Overall, these chairs are in solid vintage condition with some signs of use. Please see photos.

What is Freight shipping?

Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.

Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.
