The MG5 chair, designed by Vico Magistretti and produced by Matteo Grassi in Italy in the 1970s, exemplifies postwar modernism inspired by the Bauhaus school.

The listed price applies to a single chair; six pieces are available, sold in pairs or as a set. The chair is preserved in very good vintage condition, featuring minor signs of use consistent with age, with no visible damage or corrosion on the frame.

The MG5 chair can be paired with a classic solid wood table or a modernist glass top, achieving a
