About the Item
Fabulous vintage Italian Gio Ponti style yellow frame ladderback side or accent chair with a twisted woven rush seagrass seat. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, the original yellow frame has some chips and beautiful vintage flaws wear. One leg also has a bit of a bow from age, and the seagrass seat has aged to perfection, but both are sturdy. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Early to Mid-20th Century.
Side chair EXTRORDINAIRE!!!! I mean WOW!! This is a marvelous petite vintage Italian style side or accent chair in the style of Gio Ponti. It is comprised of a fabulous yellow frame bearing straight round tapered front legs with rounded feet and a flat front stretcher, round, tapered, and outward curved back legs that extend up to create the back side rails of the chair holding a phenomenal ladderback feature and a lower rung below the seat, and a double crosspiece stretcher joins the front and back legs which strengthens the chair and adds a bit of sass! The frame is in what we would call original Rustic condition as it does retain some chips and a bit of vintage wear and patina so it bears a character only the hands of time could give it and its marvelous. And, as if that werent enough to make you drool it features an incredible twisted woven or braided seagrass seat!! I mean WOW!!!! It was probably designed before the mid-century modern era, but this chair will go almost ANYWHERE with ANY style including modern, traditional, country, rustic, and everything in between. It would be wonderful in a dressing room. a corner of your bedroom, or in the entry for a stylish place to sit remove your shoes. Classic. Lovely. Iconic.
