The PONTI 969 design by Gio Ponti is a re-design of the original chair launched at the VI Triennale in Milan in 1936.

This piece exemplifies Ponti's classical style, where individual elements unite to create a unique whole. The twisting pattern of the backrest pays homage to adornment turned structural. The cross-section under the seat plays with symmetry, introducing tension between the expected and unexpected, while the triangular legs elegantly flare at the top and bottom.

Please note that the lacquered finish of the wood is delicate and requires careful handling from unpacking to daily use, to avoid scratches or imperfections.
