GAULINETTA

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The Gaulinetta chair, designed by Oscar Tusquets, is an evolution of the Gaulino chair. It pays homage to Enzo Mari's Tonietta chair, which itself was inspired by the Thonet chair. The Gaulinetta is designed for modern, smaller dining spaces with reduced armrests for easy storage.

Design Inspiration
Oscar Tusquets was inspired by Antonio Gaudi and Carlo Mollino when he created the original Gaulino chair in 1987. The Gaulino was known for its contoured wooden frame, slender tapering legs, and smooth leather upholstery, becoming a modern icon of 20th-century design.

Specifications
The Gaulinetta features a frame made from FSC-certified natural ash, available in natural varnish, lacquered open-pore black, or coral red (RAL 3016) finishes. The seat is upholstered in natural, toasted, or black hide. The chair's dimensions are 40 x 52 x 83 cm (15.7 x 20.4 x 32.6 inches).

Design Philosophy
The Gaulinetta exemplifies the principle of "less is more," showcasing how a minimalist design can still offer elegance and functionality. The chair's design allows it to be easily integrated into various interior settings.
