Description:
|
|
The chair was designed by two Italian designers based in Montreal at the time, Fabio Fabiano and Michelange Panzini, in 1972. Production was first carried out by IPL, located in Saint-Damien-de-Buck land, a manufacturer of Injection molded plastic parts. The chair was widely used in motels along the East Coast and Niagara. It was also sold for several years in Sears stores. The Solair chair is made of an enamelled metal base as well as a high density polyethylene plastic shell. The base is black and the shells are available in 9 colors: yellow, white, black, blue, beige, gray, lime green, orange and purple. They are still all made in Canada.
