Mario Marenco for Mobil Girgi Set of Four Dining Chairs in Walnut

Mario Marenco for Mobil Girgi, set of four dining chairs model ‘Sapporo’, walnut, leather, Italy, 1970s

A stunning set of dining chairs designed by Mario Marenco in the 1970s, crafted in rich walnut and patinated cognac leather. These chairs are distinguished by their sculptural backrests, composed of two vertical slats set apart and connected at the top and bottom, creating a striking architectural form. The two flat front legs are straight and linear, adding to their refined structure. The deep, warm tone of the walnut frame beautifully complements the aged brown leather seats. While the design evokes echoes of Scarpa’s ‘Africa’ chairs and the bold creativity of Pierre Cardin, this set stands out with a distinct and original character of its own.

Kindly note that the chairs are in good, used condition with some signs of age and use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
