Produced by Studio de Arte Palma in 1948, the Tripé de Ferro chair exemplifies Lina Bo Bardi’s early exploration of form, comfort, and adaptability. Made of metal with a cavallino leather seat, its three-legged structure and suspended, hammock-like design reflect Bo Bardi’s fascination with the fluidity of everyday life and the relationship between body and object. Drawing inspiration from the hammocks used across Brazil, the chair transforms an element of vernacular leisure into a modern, essential design masterpiece.
