A confident balance between comfort and architectural clarity defines this set of six dining chairs attributed to Willy Rizzo. Italian design of the 1970s often pursued both sensuality and restraint, and these chairs sit comfortably within that dialogue.

Design

The design pairs a cantilevered chrome frame with a generously upholstered seat and backrest in dark brown leather. Each chair rests on a continuous tubular steel base, bent into a fluid sled form that gives a sense of lightness while maintaining stability. The seating shell is softly contoured, with gathered leather that follows the body and creates a subtle rhythm across the surface. This tension between the polished metal structure and the supple upholstery reflects Rizzo’s broader work, where glamour and functionality meet.

Produced by Cidue, a manufacturer known for progressive seating solutions, the chairs align with a period where comfort became integral to modern interiors. Around a dining table, they offer a relaxed posture without losing visual discipline, and they also translate well to office or meeting environments. Several chairs still hold the original sticker.

A cohesive set with a clear identity, these chairs bring together Italian craftsmanship and a distinct 1970s aesthetic.

Condition

The condition remains good with visible small signs of use to the leather, including natural creasing and wear. Two chairs show a slightly different patina and tone, which may indicate variation in use or later replacement upholstery.
