Pedrali Gliss Chair by Dondoli and Pocci

The Pedrali Gliss is a molded plastic dining chair designed by Claudio Dondoli and Marco Pocci and made in Italy. A smooth, curved shell sits on a slender steel tube base and frame, giving the chair a light profile and a shape with a retro feel. It suits dining rooms and other seating areas where you want a distinctive, comfortable chair with a clean outline.

Design and construction of the Gliss chair

Dondoli and Pocci shaped the Gliss around soft, continuous curves. The ergonomic shell is the focal point, and the thin steel frame keeps the structure visually quiet beneath it. The result is a chair that reads as sculptural without needing bulk. Browse more from the maker in our Pedrali furniture collection or see other Pedrali chairs.

Where Pedrali Gliss chairs fit

Gliss works around a dining table in a contemporary home, and its curved form also sits comfortably in more classic rooms. Because the shell and frame are visually light, a set of Pedrali Gliss chairs can surround a table without crowding it. For similar seating, explore our contemporary dining chairs and armchairs.

FAQ

What sets the Gliss apart from a standard plastic dining chair?

Gliss combines an ergonomic molded shell with a thin steel tube base and frame, so the seat looks light rather than heavy. Its curves come from a deliberate design by Claudio Dondoli and Marco Pocci, and it is produced in Italy by Pedrali.

Does the Gliss have armrests?

Gliss is classified as an armchair in our catalog. Check the product images and the 23 inch overall width before pairing it with a table, so you can confirm the fit for your space.

Can I use Gliss in rooms other than the dining room?

Yes. It is categorized for the dining room, and its shape suits both modern and classic interiors. Any room where you need a compact, curved-shell chair with a slim frame is a reasonable candidate.
