Tripolina armchair produced by Dino Gavina, Italy 1950s
About the Item
This Tripolina armchair is produced by Dino Gavina in 1950, it is a supporting structure in chromed steel and support canvas in suede. The designer is anonymous but as Gavina himself writes in the description of the object "four crossed sticks, an animal skin to sit or to govern, the first object in the hut, this elementary chair is an absolute structure that history cannot modify but only repropose in its original simplicity " making it belong to the archetype of chair. Built and re-proposed over the years by anonymous masters who, linked to daily patience, and a dexterity learned on the piece in the artisan workshops over years of work and centuries of small improvements, deliver a piece of ancient modernity into the skilled hands of Gavina. Our tripolina is in a good state of conservation but there are small spots and signs of aging as shown in the photographs.
If you are interested in purchasing, we will send further photos and videos to highlight the state of conservation as precisely as possible.
