About the Item
A beautifully crafted Mid-Century Modern side chair in the style of Gio Ponti, dating to the 1950s. This elegant chair features a sculptural ladder-back design with gracefully tapered legs and a handwoven rush seat. Its light, airy silhouette and fine Italian craftsmanship embody the refined minimalism of Ponti’s iconic aesthetic.
The warm patina of the wood contrasts beautifully with the natural texture of the woven seat, making this a timeless accent piece for modern or traditional interiors alike. Ideal as a statement dining chair, desk chair, or occasional side chair.
