ABOUT PRODUCTID 34528
This set of 12 dining chairs designed by Boris Tabacoff is a distinctive statement of 1960s French design, realized in the spirit of the space age. The white, high-gloss lacquered metal tulip-shaped bases provide a striking contrast to the deep black leatherette upholstery, which features a subtle sheen and a gently textured surface with natural creases and a light patina. The chairs are defined by their flowing, organic lines—broad, ergonomic seats and sculptural armrests merge seamlessly with the monolithic pedestal base, with no visible screws or joints. The proportions are generous: 60 cm wide, 80 cm high, and 48 cm deep, ensuring comfort even during extended dining. The entire set is in good vintage condition, with minor traces of use typical for the era, such as small scuffs and light discoloration on the bases. The listed price is for the set of 12 chairs. These chairs echo the voice of the 1960s, when avant-garde optimism and fascination with the future found expression in futuristic forms. Tabacoff, inspired by the aesthetics of the space age, created a piece that seems to float above the floor—the white base like a tulip stem, the black seat shell reminiscent of a capsule ready for travel. Each chair tells a story of a time when design aimed to be both bold and democratic—accessible, comfortable, and ready for gatherings around the table. The set may be paired with a large table featuring simple or glass tops to accentuate the contrast and graphic presence. It would work well in mid-century modern or collector’s interiors with an eclectic touch, as well as in contemporary spaces where geometric forms and strong color contrasts create rhythm. These chairs could be combined with metal or
