I just picked up a couple chairs from a garage sale hosted by an architect mostly comprised of his old office furniture. I bought a pair of chairs that he called Rotonda chairs from Sunar. I had a voice msg from him yesterday telling me that I will be happy to know that he was wrong, these are Chircoala (sp?) chairs designed by someoned named Minale (sp?) or Minyali (sp?) and retailed for over $5K each in 1991. Does anybody know anything about this designer/manufacturer? I cannot seem to come up with the proper spelling to google with.

Thanks for any tips

Puzzle solved, architect I...
Puzzle solved, architect I purchased them from provided the cut sheets. Vignelli designed them and called them Circolo chairs. I guess this should get posted in the best finds thread as they listed at a little over $5k and I paid $125ea. I'm very unfamiliar with modern day design, do these types of design hold value?
