Lady Pollack Dining Chair

$2,110

Designed by Vico Magistretti

Vico Magistretti designed the Lady Pollack chair with the quiet conviction that comfort and restraint are not opposing forces. The result is a dining chair whose softly sculpted upholstered shell reads as generous without excess, grounded by charcoal-stained ash wood legs that carry a sense of structural honesty.

A fully removable fabric cover is not merely a practical detail. It reflects Magistretti's belief that good design should age on its own terms, allowing the piece to be renewed or reinterpreted across decades of use. The beige linen upholstery of this reissue brings a warm, unassuming tone that recedes into a room's atmosphere rather than competing with it.

  • Designed by Vico Magistretti for De Padova
  • Charcoal-stained solid ash wood legs
  • Softly sculpted upholstered shell with fully removable cover
  • Upholstery in beige linen
  • Reissued as part of De Padova's archive of modern Italian design

Magistretti remains one of the defining figures of Italian postwar design, with a practice that consistently prioritized the experience of sitting over the spectacle of the object. The Lady Pollack chair is a precise expression of that sensibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Lady Pollack chair?

The Lady Pollack chair was designed by Vico Magistretti, one of the most influential figures in Italian postwar design, known for his rigorous attention to proportion and his belief that a well-designed object should feel inevitable rather than invented. The chair is produced by De Padova, the Milanese brand with which Magistretti had a long and defining creative relationship.

Can the upholstery on the Lady Pollack chair be replaced?

Yes. One of the chair's distinguishing features is its fully removable fabric cover, which allows the upholstery to be replaced or refreshed without altering the chair's structural form. This detail reflects Magistretti's interest in designing objects built for long-term ownership rather than planned obsolescence.

What wood is used in the Lady Pollack dining chair?

The legs are crafted from solid ash wood with a charcoal stain finish. Ash is prized in furniture-making for its tight grain, resilience, and the way it accepts color treatments while retaining the character of the natural wood.

Is the Lady Pollack chair appropriate for contract or hospitality use?

The chair's construction, with its solid ash frame and removable cover, lends itself well to settings where durability and ease of maintenance are priorities. Architects and designers have specified De Padova seating in both residential and refined hospitality environments.

What is De Padova's design heritage?

De Padova was founded in Milan in 1956 and played a formative role in introducing Scandinavian design to Italy before developing its own distinct editorial identity. The brand became known for collaborations with designers including Vico Magistretti, whose work sits at the core of its archive.
