Armchair in carbon fiber, fabric and plastic materials, produced by Meritalia, Pagnotta model, designed by Gaetano Pesce, year 2005. Unique and deeply personal, all the furniture designed by Gaetano Pesce contains a dose of irony that distinguishes his entire design philosophy. Born in Liguria in 1939 and a student of Carlo Scarpa during his studies in Venice, Pesce was an internationally renowned character since the beginning of his career, not only as a designer but also as a sculptor. His acclaimed work in sculpture initially ran parallel to his career in design, and then merged with it during his high school diploma. Many of his creations in the field of furniture design reveal his desire to transcend simple interior decoration, aiming for something more and conceiving objects that are placed on the thin border line between everyday functionality and art. This art is explored in its most joyful and fun shades, expressing an authentic "joy of form". An example of this approach is the Pagnotta armchair, designed for Meritalia in 2005.

This armchair is equipped with a comfortable padded cushion, generous enough to promise infinite comfort. He reflects the taste for excess and abundance, humorously imagining a seat with fourteen carbon fiber legs, each equipped with a charming colored plastic shoe. The structure of the chair, thanks to noble joints, is unusually flexible and follows the movements of those who sit with a completely new spirit. This creates a unique feeling of use, establishing a special connection between person and object. Once placed in a contemporary house, this and other Fish creations can give a subtle self-irony to the environment, a quality that made the designer's work unique. The armchair is offered in perfect condition with its original upholstery in quality two-tone fabric. 

Dimensions: 110 cm high, 84 cm wide and 50 cm deep.
