This seven-piece dining room set, based on the "Carimate" model, was designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina in the 1960s. The combination of its distinctive shape and bold color scheme makes this ensemble a prime example of Italian mid-century design.
The set includes a rectangular dining table and six chairs, crafted from green lacquered wood. The chair seats are traditionally woven from rush, creating a delightful tactile and visual contrast to the smooth, colored wood surface. The construction is characterized by clean lines and the signature rounded corner joints.
The set is in good condition, commensurate with its age and use. The original lacquer and woven seat have developed an authentic patina, further emphasizing the furniture's historical character.
This dining room set integrates beautifully into eclectic or Scandinavian-inspired interiors. It provides a vibrant focal point for the dining area and can be easily combined with natural materials and understated colors.
