The Gaulinetta is an evolution of the Gaulino chair. In words of Oscar Tusquets «In homage to Enzo Mari, who called his chair Tonietta, a derivative of Thonet, I’ve called this chair Gaulinetta, after the Gaulino». Inspired by Antonio Gaudi and Carlo Mollino, Tusquets created 'Gaulino' in 1987. It was an industrially hand-crafted chair with a contoured wooden frame, slender tapering legs and smooth rich leather. The artisanal chair became a modern icon of 20th-century design. The Gaulinetta is an adaptation of this design, and was influenced by Enzo Mari and his Tonietta chair. The reduced armrests generate a sleek model for dining in smaller spaces, and can be tucked away following use. By creating a variation of the Thonet chair, Tusquets demonstrates how less can be more.
