Its dramatic black finish is highlighted by multiple exposed red and black laminated layers along the edges and central column, creating a graphic striped effect that gives the piece an almost architectural appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe four matching armchairs continue the same visual language. They are constructed from thick, high-quality transparent plexiglass, with beautifully shaped continuous side\/arm elements and slim transparent supports. The vivid red upholstered seat and backrest provide a powerful contrast against the clear acrylic structure and black\/red table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, the table and chairs create an exceptionally cohesive ensemble. The transparency of the chairs visually lightens the substantial table, while the red upholstery echoes the red laminated detailing of the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesign\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of black, red and transparent acrylic, the strong geometric silhouettes and the exposed layered edges are characteristic of the adventurous Italian design language of the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a conventional dining set. It is a highly sculptural interior-design statement that works particularly well in sophisticated contemporary, Postmodern, Memphis-inspired or eclectic interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe substantial construction, unusually thick plexiglass and carefully executed laminated details give the set a much more substantial presence than typical mass-produced furniture from the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: Italy, Milan\u003cbr\u003e\nPeriod: 1980s\u003cbr\u003e\nStyle: Italian Postmodern \/ Memphis-inspired\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Laminated wood, thick transparent plexiglass\/acrylic, red fabric upholstery\u003cbr\u003e\nSet includes: 1 dining table + 4 matching armchairs\u003cbr\u003e\nTotal pieces: 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTABLE DIMENSIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Width: 110 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Depth: 110 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Total height: 73 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Height to underside of tabletop: 70 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCHAIR DIMENSIONS — EACH\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Overall width: 69 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Overall depth: 57 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Overall height: 75 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Seat height: 44 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Seat depth: 44 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Seat width: 47 cm\u003cbr\u003e\n* Armrest height: 63 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCONDITION\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good vintage condition overall, with signs of age and use consistent with an authentic piece from the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe transparent plexiglass shows some minor surface marks and signs of age visible upon close inspection.
