Fron­zoni ​’64 Chair

Noted here is the Fron­zoni ​’64 Dining Chair that features a support struc­ture in squared tubular steel that supports a seat in lacquered wood. This dining chair is avail­able in white or anthracite matte lacquer as part of our Quick Ship program.

Fronzoni’s work was deeply influ­enced by both Mies van der Rohe’s and Marcel Breuer’s philoso­phies of synthe­sis and subtrac­tion and is evident in his mini­mal­ist ​’64 Collec­tion designed in 1964 for Cappellini that included a coffee table, dining tables of various sizes, a dining chair, a lounge chair, and even beds of varying sizes. Fron­zoni used squared tubular steel to render recti­lin­ear shapes that func­tion as the outlines of his furni­ture, defin­ing planes of space. These slim profile outlines create an exquis­ite levity within the result­ing objects – their respec­tive support struc­tures allow the viewer to liter­ally see through them. Exam­ples from the Fron­zoni ​’64 Collec­tion are included in the perma­nent collec­tions of numer­ous museums worldwide.
