Bonacina style Italian Rattan Rocking Chair, 1960s Italy

About the Item

Stunning rattan rocking chair inspired by Franco Bettonica and the space age of the 1960s. He sought to create a chair using traditional natural materials but bending and weaving them into futuristic shapes. This chair features a bamboo wheel frame and a wicker seat and canopy. There are arm rests as well as a foot rest and a back stop to prevent you from fully rolling over. Amazing lines and presence. Great vintage condition. Located in our Los Angeles gallery.
