AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Meneghello folding cinema chairs dating from the 1960s, belonging to the Italian contract production intended for cinema and theatre venues.
Black-painted metal supporting frame with an original, functioning, and stable tilting mechanism. Seat and backrest made of curved wood with visible grain; sculpted wooden armrests integrated into the metal framework. The construction reflects the typical communal furnishings of the period, characterized by structural robustness, functionality, and long-lasting durability.
Overall good condition. Solid structures and folding mechanisms are functioning correctly. There are superficial signs, small scratches, and traces of use on wood and metal that are consistent with age and with the original use in a public setting. Authentic patina.
As these are antique seats from the same series, each piece may show slight aesthetic differences, variations in patina, and superficial marks consistent with age and use, without compromising structural stability and functionality.
Photographs are an integral part of the description and faithfully illustrate the preservation condition of representative specimens of the lot.
Further items from the same series will be offered separately.
