About the Item

All Originals "Chiavarine" iconic pair high back chairs by S.A.C, Giò Ponti style, with woven Indian cane seat. With manufacturer's label. About Gio Ponti Giovanni “Gio” Ponti (born November 18, 1891, Milan, Italy–died September 16, 1979, Milan, Italy) was one of the most influential Italian architects, industrial designers, furniture designers, artists, and publishers of the 20th century. He is considered the father of modern Italian design and is associated with the development of modern architecture in Italy. Throughout his long creative career, which spanned more than six decades, Gio Ponti created numerous furniture, decorative art, and industrial product designs using artisanal and modern production techniques, in addition to creating important works of architecture in Italy and abroad. Early Influence Of Decorative Arts In Gio Ponti’s Approach to Architecture, Product, and Furniture Design Ponti graduated from the Politecnico di Milano in 1921. In 1923, he started his first industrial design work designing ceramics for the Richard Ginori pottery factory, close to Florence. Two years later, he convinced Richard Ginori to participate in the Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (a 1925 Paris exposition), where Ponti’s ceramic designs were very successful. During this time, Ponti forged a lasting relationship with Christofle executive and shareholder Tony Bouilhet, who later married Ponti’s niece–Carla Borletti–and for whom he designed Villa Bouilhet at the Saint-Cloud golf club near Paris, one of Ponti’s earliest house designs. During his 15-year involvement with the Richard Ginori pottery factory, but especially during the early years, Gio Ponti collaborated with craftsmen and artisans to create rich designs with abundant colors, elaborate shapes, and skilled craftsmanship, mostly in the neoclassical style. This style and approach was at great odds with the functional and minimal approach of the then-prevalent Italian Rationalism, and it was distinctly present in Ponti’s work in the 1930s and 1940s, becoming less so over later years. Gio Ponti Founds Domus Magazine, A Platform For The Emerging Italian Modernist Design In 1928, Ponti started Domus, an architecture and design magazine with a mission to energize Italian architecture, interior design, and decorative arts. In his first editorial, as well as in several of his later writings at Domus, Ponti articulates some differences regarding the Italian house, La casa all’italiana, in which he suggests that the Italian house “does not just consist in the correspondence of things to necessities and needs of our life or in the organization of services” and that the house is “meant to shape our thoughts, suggest simple and healthy habits, invite to peaceful and serene recreation thanks to its opening towards nature.” His leadership at Domus would allow him to play a pivotal role in this interwar period by asserting the Italian perspective and tradition to the European modernist trends of the time and by expressing his consideration to the ideas regarding the Novecento artistic movement, a counter-movement to Rationalismo.
