‘Suspiral’ Iron + Glass Chair by Luigi Serafini for Sawaya & Moroni, 1984 - 2 Available

$4,000.00

Sold and priced individually.

A sculptural enigma from the surreal mind of Italian artist and architect Luigi Serafini, the ‘Suspiral’ chair is an object of intrigue that defies traditional form. Designed in 1984 for the avant-garde atelier Sawaya & Moroni, this piece is a study in tension and transparency—where wrought iron meets glass in an improbable yet harmonious union.

The backrest unfurls in a hypnotic spiral, like a line drawn in the air, while the seat—a molded plane of thick, clear glass—appears to hover weightlessly above its geometric frame. Twisted front legs anchor the design in the realm of high-concept functional art.

SEAT HEIGHT: 18.5"
