Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Lady Chair historically significant?
The Lady Chair was among the earliest furniture designs to use foam rubber not as cushioning applied over a frame, but as a structural element integral to the form itself. This approach, developed by Marco Zanuso in 1951, fundamentally changed how upholstered furniture could be conceived and constructed.
Who designed the Cassina Lady Chair?
The Lady Chair was designed by Marco Zanuso, a Milan-born architect and industrial designer whose postwar work bridged rigorous technical research with a distinctly humanist sensibility. Zanuso collaborated closely with Cassina and later Arflex on some of the most influential Italian furniture of the twentieth century.
Is the Lady Chair part of Cassina's I Maestri collection?
Yes. Cassina produces the Lady Chair within its I Maestri program, which preserves and reissues canonical works by masters of modern design. Each piece in the collection is made in close fidelity to the original specifications, often in collaboration with designer estates or foundations.
What upholstery options are available for the Lady Chair?
The Lady Chair is available in a range of fabric and leather upholstery options through Cassina's current collections. Because upholstery is integral to the chair's structure and form, selection of material and color meaningfully affects the reading of its silhouette.
How does the Lady Chair's construction differ from conventional armchairs?
In conventional upholstered chairs, foam or padding is layered over a rigid internal frame. Zanuso's design for the Lady Chair treats foam rubber as a load-bearing component, allowing the seat, backrest, and armrests to become one cohesive sculptural form rather than separate assembled parts.
