The Leggera chair by Cassina represents an extraordinary example of collaboration between Gio Ponti, Cesare Cassina, and the skilled artisans of the company. This piece of furniture stands out as an authentic masterpiece of style.
Leggera Chair by GIO PONTI
The Leggera chair is one of the highlights of the collaboration between Gio Ponti and Cassina, which began in the 1950s. The numerous available combinations and the chromatic contrasts between the ash wood structure and the seat covering, including the padded backrest with a removable cushion, give this model a timeless appearance and easy integration into any setting. Its ash wood structure is available in multiple colors, while the upholstery offers a wide range of fabrics and leathers, allowing for original color combinations and giving the chair a modern and versatile look. Its clean form is capable of satisfying a wide range of needs and adapts perfectly to different contexts and spaces.
The Leggera chair by Cassina is available in four different versions, distinguished by the presence or absence of armrests and the choice between an open or padded backrest. Additionally, the seat can be enhanced with a woven paper cord in various finishes, adding a touch of sophistication. Cassina's carpentry, known for producing high-quality sofas, armchairs, and tables, embarked on a challenging endeavor aimed at progressively reducing the weight of the structure, ultimately leading to the creation of the famous Superleggera, an extremely thin and unparalleled chair. Despite the pursuit of lightness, attention to the simplicity of lines, and the chair's resistance and stability have always been maintained.
The Leggera chair's structure is crafted from solid ash wood, but it may also be available in Canaletto walnut. The seat is equipped with elastic straps to ensure maximum comfort. The internal padding is made of flexible expanded polyurethane, while the external upholstery consists of a combination of polyurethane and velveteen. Alternatively, one can opt for a woven paper cord with specific finishes. The backrest is padded with molded thermoformed polyurethane.
