Description from the seller

Refined set of 3 “Mauna Kea” chairs, designed by Italian design master Vico Magistretti for Kartell in 1994.

An icon of 1990s industrial design, the Mauna Kea series combines a minimalist, elegant aesthetic with cutting-edge technical and functional solutions.

Lot details:

Designer: Vico Magistretti

Manufacturer: Kartell (Made in Italy)

Model: Mauna Kea

Year designed: 1994

Quantity: 3 chairs

Materials: High-strength polypropylene shell, aluminium tubular frame and legs.

Colour: Shell in a muted blue/teal shade with a metallic grey frame.

Distinctive details: The characteristic horizontal slotted grille on the seat and backrest, designed to ensure maximum breathability and visual lightness.

Mark: Authenticity mark embossed underneath each seat (“Kartell DESIGN VICO MAGISTRETTI Made in Italy”).

Condition:
The chairs are in good original vintage condition. They show minor, natural signs of age and use (small surface scratches or patina on the metal frame and shells, and one missing plastic foot cap), which attest to their authenticity and preserve their vintage charm. Structurally sturdy, stable and fully usable.

Ideal for indoor settings, dining areas, studios, executive offices or covered outdoor spaces.
