Christian Plat

Original in all of their parts and almost impossible to find; these are the two "Cesca" chairs offered in this lot, created  in the late 1960s by the prestigious company Gavina spa in San Lazzaro di Savena (Italy).
In 1968 Dino Gavina convinced Marcel Breuer in New York to put into production his 1920s projects, including the "Cesca" chair, designed by Breuer in 1928. The chair was so successful, that the market was then invaded by many more or less reputable reproductions, which in any case exalted the prestige of possessing the original pieces.
The company Gavina spa, whose president was one of the most famous Italian designers, Carlo Scarpa, was later incorporated by Knoll, which continues the production of many Breuer designs to this day.
Supporting structure in a single piece of Mannesmann style tubular steel, bent cold to give shape to the chair and then chrome-plated. Seat and backrest consisting of wooden frame lacquered black and secondary frame in rattan attached to the frame with wicker cord. All according to Breuer's design.
Brand marks found under the seat, they are proof of the authenticity of these objects. 
The rattan seat has been replaced
Shipping with tracking.
