Frequently Asked Questions
Who was Franco Albini and why does the Sedia 1938 matter?
Franco Albini (1905-1977) was one of the leading figures of Italian rationalist design, known for work that merged rigorous engineering with a refined aesthetic sensibility. The Sedia 1938 is considered a defining early expression of that philosophy, distilling the chair form to its structural and visual essentials.
Is the Sedia 1938 suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. Exteta's reissue of the Sedia 1938 is specified for both indoor and outdoor environments, with materials and finishes selected to withstand exterior conditions while preserving the integrity of Albini's original design.
How faithful is Exteta's reissue to Albini's original design?
Exteta produced the reissue from Albini's original drawings, maintaining the proportions, joinery details, and material character that defined the 1938 prototype. The goal was fidelity rather than reinterpretation.
What wood species and finishes are available for the Sedia 1938?
Finish and wood options are confirmed at the time of order, as the Sedia 1938 is made to order. Contacting a design expert is the best way to review current specifications and customization possibilities.
How long does production take for a made-to-order piece like this?
Lead times for made-to-order pieces vary depending on configuration and current production schedules. A design consultant can provide accurate timelines at the point of inquiry.
