Cassina Zig Zag Chair
37 X 74 X 48 CM.
Ash Painted, Wood
Designed by Gerrit Rietveld for Cassina, the Zig Zag chair provided an early example of a cantilevered seat, and is composed of four wood boards articulated end-to-end. Eschewing the traditional legs-seat-back sequence, Rietveld created a ribbon of wood forming a Z-shape. The crafts mastery of Cassina’s carpenters is seen in the execution of the dove-tail joints, which add to the beauty of the piece. The aesthetic uniqueness of this piece can be seen particularly well in the coloured version, its open-pore finish highlighting the veins of the wood on the front and sides and further highlight the relationship between the vertical, oblique and horizontal lines.
Immediately available the following versions, sizes: 37 X 74 X D.48 CM.
- ASHWOOD STAINED BLUE.
- ASHWOOD STAINED RED.
