Transparent chair with armrests Louis Ghost - Kartell

An absolute cult classic, the Louis Ghost chair is a flagship model from Italian brand Kartell. Designed by design genius Philippe Starck, this seat owes its unique, offbeat look to the masterful blend of a baroque silhouette inspired directly by the Louis XVI armchair with the use of innovative technologies and materials.

The Louis Ghost chair – in other words, the ghost of Louis – haunts us with its utterly singular presence. Completely see-through in its crystal colourway, this seat with an invisible spectrum leaves no one indifferent, with its elegant medallion-shaped backrest, its classically lined frame, its right-angled armrests and its slightly tapered legs.

This sturdy, stable seat is made from polycarbonate, a premium material that gives this designer chair excellent strength, further enhanced by a manufacturing process that is unique in the world: the plastic is injected directly by syringe into a single mould. Stackable up to 6 high and resistant to knocks and scratches, the Louis Ghost chair suits any setting: hotels, restaurants, offices, dining rooms and more. Guaranteed for outdoor use, Louis Ghost is equally at home on terraces and in garden lounges!

With more than 1.5 million units sold worldwide, the iconic Louis Ghost chair comes in a whole array of transparent and opaque colours. Its miniature version, reserved for little ones, goes by the sweet name of Lou Lou Ghost and is also available at The Cool Republic.
