About the Item

A wonderful set of 6 1970’s “Pala” chairs designed by the noted Italian Architect Gigi Sabadin for Emme. These chairs are comfortable to sit as well as being beautiful sculptural works of art. We have left them in their original condition and they show signs of use and wear. They are structurally sound and good but the finish on the bases of some is worn, as pictured. There is some wear to the top edges as well.

Gigi Sabadin “Pala” Dining Chairs for Emme, 1973, Set of 8

Gigi Sabadin “Pala” Dining Chairs for Emme, 1973, Set of 8

By Gigi Sabadin

Located in Lonigo, Veneto

Gigi Sabadin “Pala” dining chairs for Emme, wood, Italy, 1973, set of eight Designed in 1973 by Italian architect and designer Gigi Sabadin, the “Pala” chairs embody the radical experimentation of the Italian Seventies.

The stark black lacquered wood, resting on a double-base support, highlights the tension between geometric rigor and the organic tactility of natural fiber. Sabadin’s design language resonates with the conceptual explorations of Archizoom, Superstudio, and Gianni Pettena, where furniture transcends function to become a spatial and architectural statement. The radical minimalism of the “Pala” also recalls the self-reduction principles of Enzo Mari...
