Barendrecht, NetherlandsView all items from this sellerDesigned by Verner Panton and made by Vitra, this Mid - Century Modern 'Panton Chair' is a true design classic! The curved, cantilevered form creates an expressive and iconic silhouette that has true cult status to this day.
I have 3 chairs available, all marked and in excellent condition: 1 in orange (this color is almost unfindable....on the photos the color tends to red, but it is really orange) and 2 in white (see other ad).
This ad concerns 1 orange chair!
Description:
The 'Panton Chair' was designed in 1960 by Verner Panton (Denmark, 1926-1999) and further developed in 1967 in collaboration with Fehlbaum / Vitra. It was the first chair made entirely of plastic and had a cantilevered design. The sculptural form, in Panton's signature vibrant colors, created quite a sensation. Vitra and Panton worked closely on a new version in polypropylene, which was launched in 1999 (unfortunately just after Panton's death).
Today there are two models: the Panton Chair Classic in rigid polyurethane foam with a glossy surface and the Panton Chair in polypropylene with a matte finish.
The comfort of this chair is due to its cantilevered construction of light flexible material and its characteristic and ergonomic shape. The chair is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The Panton Chair has won many international design awards and is part of the collection of many leading museums. Its expressive form has made it an icon of the twentieth century.
