Green Velvet Acara Dining Chairs by Paolo Piva for B&B Italia, Set of 8

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Originally designed by Paolo Piva for B&B Italia in the 1980s, the Arcadia collection perfectly showcases Piva’s architectural style and industrial background. Featuring a slim angular profile, these Acara dining chairs are fully upholstered in turquoise green velvet fabric. The sleek lines are dramatically contrasted by the tubular chrome rings which sit on the back of the chairs, connecting the backrest to the seat and giving the effect of chain links. The chrome curves, slimline silhouette and brightly coloured yet soft velvet all juxtapose each other to create the perfect balance of practical design with a twist. The perfect addition to any contemporary dining space, these chairs are sure to add a touch of fun and a pop of colour.
