Carlo Mollino: Chair designed for Lisa and Gio Ponti
This chair was designed for Lixa and Gio Ponti. It is bifurcated form is clearly based on a cloven hoof and reflects Mollino’s life long intrest in the occult. Polished brass frame with resin-flex upholstered seat and back.
I Think that this chair is quite ugly, the color of it is really quite plan and bland, once again the seat has a crack in between it so it looks like it wouldn’t be very comfortable and the back of the seat looks like the center piece of the flower of a tiger lily.
