Spada Chiavari Chair – Mid-Century Italian Design
This exquisite Spada (or Spadina/Tre Spade) Chiavari chair was expertly crafted in Chiavari, Italy, a town celebrated for its fine chair-making tradition since the early 19th century. Manufactured in the 1950s–1960s by S.A.C. (Fabbrica Sedie Artistiche Chiavaresi), this chair exemplifies the elegance, craftsmanship, and lightweight construction that have made Chiavari chairs a design icon.
Made from French-polished beech wood in a rich mahogany color and featuring a hand-woven cane seat, this chair is both refined and remarkably lightweight, weighing less than 3 kg.

The hand-woven cane seat, crafted using traditional Chiavari techniques, showcases the region’s time-honored craftsmanship. In great condition with minimal wear for its age, this Spada Chiavari chair is an elegant and timeless piece of Italian design history.
