Title: Set of Two ( 2 ) Junior-Sized "Roly Poly" Plastic Molded Chairs by Faye Toogood for Driade, Italy, c. 2010s
About: Introducing a playful set of rare junior-sized "Roly Poly" chairs designed by Faye Toogood for the Italian firm Driade. The distinctive, reassuringly chunky lines of Toogood’s Roly-Poly furniture collection have become iconic since her first edition was released in 2014. This particular set is a less commonly produced child-sized chair, perfect for children aged 2-12. Practically indestructible, thanks to their durable polyethylene plastic construction, this set is perfect for even the wildest toddler.
Faye Toogood is a British-based designer who's furniture and pieces demonstrate a preoccupation with materiality and cheerful experimentation. All of her pieces are handmade by small-scale fabricators and traditional artisans, with an honesty to the rawness and irregularity of the chosen material. With an academic training in the theory and practice of Fine art, and a vocational background at the forefront of the magazine industry, Toogood approaches product design with a singular and acutely honed eye.
Her highly sculptural work, while showing an astute respect for the past, is derived from pure self-expression and instinct. With each Assemblage, she engages not only with the products themselves but also with the three-dimensional space in which they are exhibited, working across multiple disciplines to create a single body of work with an intuitive and unified narrative which are on full display with these "Roly Poly" chairs. Make them yours today.
