About the Item

Designed by Giovanni Banci (1942 – 1999) in the eighties, they’re a unique fusion of art and furniture. Walk around these pieces and the lines become ever-changing doodles, different with each step you take. Note: this item falls somewhere between 'chair' sand sculpture, as it is really a functional piece of art. Very unique piece.
