Originally commissioned for a private collection, this rare vintage armchair by Gabriella Crespi is part of the 5 Posizioni collection. Its name refers to the pieces’ ability to adjust into five different seating positions, an expression of Crespi’s pursuit of versatility and harmony between form and function. Crafted from vertically coiled rattan, the armchair embodies her vision of seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living, offering a bold and elegant reinterpretation of a material distinctive within her oeuvre.
