Elena chairs (10)

Sottsass Associati

The Elena chairs, designed in 1993 by Ettore Sottsass and Sottsass Associati for Zanotta, reflect the iconic designer’s bold and unconventional approach to form. Made for both indoor and outdoor use, the chair features a playful yet architectural silhouette that blends sculptural lines with functional durability. Crafted from weather-resistant painted steel, the Elena is as practical as it is striking—equally suited for a garden terrace or a contemporary interior. Produced for only a short period, these rare chairs show signs of use, adding character to their unique 1990s design heritage.
