This set of six Boston dining chairs, designed by Pierre Paulin for Henry Massonnet in 1988, exemplifies postmodern design from the 1980s. The chairs are made entirely of molded plastic, finished in deep black and accented with geometric red details on the backrest, arranged in rectilinear grids reminiscent of Piet Mondrian’s abstract compositions. The monobloc construction seamlessly integrates seat, back, and armrests. Straight, sturdy legs and a gently contoured back provide ergonomic comfort, while the stackable design allows for practical storage. The plastic surface is smooth and glossy, with visible light scratches and scuffs consistent with age and use. The set remains in good vintage condition, with no major cracks or structural damage. These chairs speak with the voice of late 20th-century design: bold, graphic, open to references from De Stijl to modernism. The interplay of black and red on the backrest forms a dialogue where function meets artistic expression. The smooth plastic and striking lines recall a time when design aimed to surprise and play with color and citation. Each chair carries echoes of the urban rhythm of the 1980s, when new materials and technologies met artistic gestures. The Boston chairs can be used both around a dining table indoors and in outdoor settings such as gardens or terraces. They offer a strong visual statement in postmodern interiors, eclectic collections, or minimalist spaces. They may be paired with a simple table with
