Iron rocking chair designed by Lio Carminati 1950s Casa e Giardino edition. Assumed collaboration with Gio Ponti. Iron painted white. There are two legs that support the entire structure. The armrests and legs are one: in fact, the armrests are very round and connect to the legs, which have a mechanism that allows the rocking chair to move back and forth. Between the two legs is a tubular support, also made of iron, designed to allow the feet to rest. The seat is softened by green-colored fabric cushions that look new because they have been detected wrapped in plastic, but are original to the period and therefore in excellent condition. Published.
