Italian Mid Century Modern “S Chair” by Marzio Cecchi for Studio Most, 1970s

Sculptural Wicker Rope Lounge Chairs

The “S Chair”, designed by Marzio Cecchi for Studio Most in the early 1970s, is an iconic example of Italian mid-century modern design. With its graceful, flowing silhouette and organic materiality, the chair has become a highly collectible design classic.

Sculptural form and organic materials

Crafted from woven wicker rope, the chair’s striking “S” form rests on a circular base, creating a seamless sculptural profile. Both elegant and functional, this design demonstrates Cecchi’s ability to transform natural materials into modernist works of art. The woven texture and warm tones of the wicker highlight the craftsmanship, while the ergonomic curve offers surprising comfort.
