Superleggera
by Gio Ponti
At just 1.7 kg, the Superleggera (‘super light’ in Italian) can be lifted with a single finger — yet it comfortably supports a seated adult. Gio Ponti refined the traditional Chiavari chair from the Italian Riviera down to its structural essence, achieving an almost impossible balance between lightness and strength. It is Italian design philosophy — elegance through reduction — in its purest form.
