The set of six Abanica dining chairs, designed by Oscar Tusquets for Aleph in 1988, represents a mature example of late 1980s postmodernism. Each chair is built on a slender, dark brown lacquered metal frame with a subtle satin sheen, creating bold geometric lines and a stable silhouette. The seat and distinctive fan-shaped backrest are hand-woven from natural rattan in warm, honey-brown tones, displaying gentle gradations from golden to medium brown that emphasize their organic character. Architectural precision is highlighted by triangular reinforcements beneath the seat and flared leg ends, while visible metal joints and exposed fastenings underscore the craftsmanship and structural honesty. Each chair is signed by the manufacturer and designer. The set is in very good condition, with only minimal traces of use and no visible damage or repairs.The Abanica chairs capture the spirit of the late 1980s, when postmodernism embraced bold combinations of materials and historical references. The fan motif and matte rattan texture evoke a period where formal audacity merged with a renewed appreciation for traditional craft, and metal and wicker engage in a subtle dialogue between cool structure and natural warmth. Every detail—from the pronounced lines to the hand-woven seat—expresses a design that is as sculptural as it is functional.This Abanica set would suit a large glass or wooden table in an eclectic, postmodern-inspired dining room, or in interiors influenced by Memphis style or vintage collector spaces. The chairs can be paired with minimalist, geometric lighting or muted textiles to highlight their form. They are also suitable for use on a covered terrace or in a conservatory,
