About the Item

The “Dondolo” rocking chair by Luigi Crassevig embodies the refined elegance of Italian modernism of the 1970s. Its flowing bentwood frame is a testament to Crassevig’s mastery of woodworking, while the newly upholstered seat in textured fabric brings warmth and comfort to its sculptural presence. The chair balances lightness with strength, making it as inviting as it is striking – a piece that seamlessly blends form and function. About the designer Luigi Crassevig (1932–1999) was an Italian furniture designer celebrated for his innovative use of bentwood techniques. Founding the Crassevig company in 1969, he combined traditional craftsmanship with modernist principles, producing designs that became internationally recognized for their elegance and durability. His legacy continues today as Crassevig remains a respected name in contemporary furniture design.
