"At its presentation in 1967 at the Milan Furniture Fair, the chair received such acclaim from the public that many visitors left the stand carrying those on display. Following this unorthodox compliment, the chairs were secured in the booth with a chain. Thanks to Plia and its study on the 'three-disc pivot', revolutionising the concept of folding chairs, Giancarlo Piretti entered history with the nickname 'Thonet of the 20th century'. Available in different colours, from the steel structure to the seat and backrest, it even offers a version with Vienna straw stretched over a solid wood frame, further enriching an icon of entirely Italian style.".
