Five-piece wooden dining set designed by Luigi Vaghi for Former, Italy, dating to 1960–1970; round table Ø120×74 cm with radial grain and soft-edge oil finish, accompanied by four white-upholstered chairs, in good condition with minor signs of wear.
Description from the seller
Rare and highly refined complete set designed by Luigi Vaghi for Former in 1972: the round table here in the most intimate and sought-after version with a diameter of 120 cm, accompanied by its four original chairs. The table (circular model) features a top made of precious wood with a continuous radial grain, 40 mm thick, with a soft rounded edge and an oil finish that highlights the warm, deep flames of the wood. The four chairs are upholstered in white fabric with impeccable stitching. Dimensions: Table: Ø 120 × 74 cm high (ideal for 4 people, visually expandable thanks to its round shape).
Chairs: 56 × 58 × 78 H cm (seat height 46 cm)
Excellent vintage condition: only micro-use scratches; intact fabric; Italian private provenance, owned by the same owner since the 1970s. Complete set, perfectly matched, virtually unfindable in the round 120 cm version. A jewel of 1970s Italian design, warm, elegant, and with a commanding presence. Perfect for a sophisticated dining room or an important conversation corner.
