In 1989 Knoll introduced the Franzolini chair, a thoroughly modern interpretation of the bentwood chair. The design, an elegant combination of wood, steel and textiles, features graceful lines and echoes attributes from several of Franzolini’s historical influencers. A Knoll press release announcing the chair’s introduction stated simply, “Homage to tradition. With a touch of irreverence.”
Pitting and some light rust to chrome supports; some rubbing and areas of wear to black lacquer at edges; overall good usable condition.
