A sculptural icon by the inimitable Piero Fornasetti, the Sole chair captures the designer’s surreal blend of art and utility. Featuring his signature sun motif, this piece radiates whimsy and sophistication in equal measure. The chair’s sleek silhouette and poetic graphic treatment embody Fornasetti’s fascination with celestial imagery and classical forms, reimagined through a distinctly modern lens.

Overall in good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age, including light scuffs, small surface scratches, and faint discoloration at the edges of the backrest. Structurally sound and visually striking, this chair remains a luminous example of Fornasetti’s timeless artistry.
