Cattelan Italia GRETA

Product Description

The Cattelan Italia Greta from Vintara Design is a replica of the modern Greta Dining Armchair, originally designed by Cattelan Italia, an Italian furniture brand renowned for its contemporary design since its founding in 1979 by Giorgio and Silvia Cattelan. This chair exemplifies a blend of refined aesthetics and functional comfort:

• Design: The Greta armchair features a modern silhouette with upholstered armrests and a distinctive hollow structure. A wrap-around cushion seamlessly connects the backrest to the armrests, creating a spacious and comfortable seating area. The cushion is adorned with four stitches, producing a soft, refined capitonné effect. The floating backrest, formed by a curved, contoured cylinder, wraps around the back and extends into the padded armrests, enhancing both comfort and style. The chair’s base, made of thin metal legs with an elliptical cross-section, introduces a striking contrast between the soft upholstery and the metallic frame, available in elegant finishes like titanium, bronze, or black [Web ID: 1] [Web ID: 2] [Web ID: 8].
• Materials:
  • Frame: Constructed with embossed lacquered steel in finishes such as titanium (GFM11), bronze (GFM18), graphite (GFM69), pearl (GFM70), or black (GFM73), providing a sturdy and sleek foundation [Web ID: 1] [Web ID: 8].
  • Upholstery: Covered in fabric, micro nubuck, soft leather, or synthetic leather, as per Cattelan Italia’s sample card. The cover is not removable, ensuring a tailored fit [Web ID: 1] [Web ID: 8].
• Customization: Vintara Design offers customization options, allowing you to select from various upholstery materials and colors to match your decor preferences [Web ID: 10].
• Versatility: Ideal for dining spaces, modern living rooms, or offices, the Greta chair combines luxurious comfort with a sophisticated design, making it a statement piece that elevates any interior [Web ID: 2] [Web ID: 8]. The Greta chair reflects Cattelan Italia’s commitment to quality materials and Italian craftsmanship, offering a balance of functionality and aesthetic appeal that aligns with the brand’s philosophy of creating “cozy objects in form and substance” [Web ID: 5].

Product Care Instructions

The Vintara Design page does not provide specific care instructions for this replica, but based on the materials described (fabric, micro nubuck, soft leather, or synthetic leather upholstery, and embossed lacquered steel frame) and care guidelines for similar Cattelan Italia products, the following applies:

• Upholstery (Fabric, Micro Nubuck, Soft Leather, or Synthetic Leather):
  • Cleaning: For fabric or micro nubuck, gently vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust. For spills, spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, blotting carefully to avoid damaging the texture. For soft leather or synthetic leather, wipe with a soft, dry cloth; use a leather-specific cleaner for stains, following the product’s instructions. Since the cover is not removable, avoid soaking the upholstery [Web ID: 1] [Web ID: 8].
  • Maintenance: Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading or drying, as both fabric and leather can be sensitive to UV exposure. For leather, apply a conditioner every 6–12 months to maintain suppleness. Test cleaners on a hidden area first to ensure compatibility.
• Embossed Lacquered Steel Frame:
  • Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly to prevent water spots or corrosion. Use a metal polish or vinegar-water solution for smudges.
  • Maintenance: Check for scratches or chips in the lacquer, which could expose the steel to rust. Avoid abrasive scrubbers to prevent damage to the finish.
• General Tips:
  • Place the chair on a flat, stable surface to avoid structural stress.
  • Use a fabric or leather protector spray to enhance stain resistance, testing first on a hidden area.
  • Dust regularly to prevent dirt accumulation.

Product Dimensions

The Vintara Design product page does not explicitly list dimensions for the Cattelan Italia Greta replica. However, based on related sources for the original Greta Dining Armchair by Cattelan Italia, the dimensions are not directly specified in the provided references either. Given its design as a dining armchair with padded armrests and a wrap-around cushion, we can estimate dimensions based on similar modern dining chairs with armrests, such as those from Cattelan Italia’s collection:

• Width: Approximately 60 cm (23.6 inches)
• Depth: Approximately 55 cm (21.7 inches)
• Height: Approximately 85 cm (33.5 inches)
• Seat Height: Approximately 46 cm (18.1 inches) These dimensions are inferred from the typical proportions of modern dining armchairs with similar designs, as noted in various Cattelan Italia chair listings [Web ID: 8] [Web ID: 20].
