The Magis First Chair in black is a contemporary stacking chair designed by Stefano Giovannoni and first produced in 2007. This example is unused ex-display stock, so it presents a chance to acquire a design classic without paying the usual retail premium.
Design and construction
The chair is made from air-moulded polypropylene with added glass fibre, giving it a sturdy yet lightweight feel. The moulded colour runs throughout, with a satin finish at the front and a glossy finish at the back. This construction method was a first for a chair of this scale, allowing the frame to be hollowed out across its complex backrest and seat. The result is a clean, sculptural form that works well in dining rooms, kitchens, conservatories, or outdoor terraces.

Condition and ex-display note
This chair is unused and comes from a display setting. As with any ex-display item, check the dimensions and finish against your requirements before purchase. Display stock is often end-of-line or showroom surplus, which is why it can be offered at a lower price than new. Other colours are available, so please see the seller's other listings for blue, olive, and white.
