Magis Tosca Chair by Richard Sapper


Magis Tosca Chair by Richard Sapper

The Tosca Armchair is manufactured in Italy by Magis. This wonderful modern design chair was designed by the German industrial designer Richard Sapper. Richard Sapper's Tosca Chair is a simple yet brilliant design chair which is perfect for both classic- and modern interiors. The clear Tosca Chair is an attractive alternative to the Kartell Louis Ghost Chair as it offers the same great robustness of a single moulded polycarbonate/polyamide chair and can still create the feeling of airy open spaces. The Tosca Chair is lightweight, stackable up to 9 units high, and suitable for indoor and outdoor use.


Richard Sapper is one of Germany's most influential designers His design career began in 1958 in Milan, and he is now strongly associated with postwar Italian design, successfully combining its sensual qualities with German precision. In 1972 Richard Sapper designed the high-tech Tizio lamp for Artemide, which is still a must have table lamp. Richard Sapper was also responsible for the design of the Thinkpad laptop line for IBM in the 1980's. Other firms that hired the design talent of Richard Sapper include Alessi, B&B Italia, Castelli, Fiat, Pirelli, Tag Heuer, Italora, Knoll International, Telefunken, and Unifor. Richard Sapper certainly has a portfolio that few designers can rival.
