Description-

Zig-Zag, a chair designed by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld in 1934, is considered one of the first examples of cantilevered seating. A continuous sheet of wood in the shape of an inverted Z gives life to a minimalist and balanced chair. The apparent instability hides the elaborate craftsmanship of the Cassina carpenters, especially in the dovetail joints, which make the seat firm without neglecting the uniqueness and elegance of the shape.

Brand

Cassina

Established in 1927, Cassina was founded in Meda (Milan) by Cesare and Umberto Cassina, inaugurating industrial design in 1950s Italy. The identity of the brand meets in an original union where technological aptitude is closely connected to a craftsmanship of great tradition. In fact, Cassina maintains its ancient heart, carpentry, the pivot of all its workmanship. It is characterized by a transversal culture of absolute quality, which makes each Cassina piece unique.

Designer

Gerrit Thomas Rietveld

Gerrit Thomas Rietveld was a Dutch architect, designer and craftsman. He was born in Utrecht in 1888 and trained as a cabinetmaker in the workshop of his carpenter father. In 1918 he joined the neo-plastic art movement De Stijl, characterized by the use of line, space and primary colors. Indeed, characteristic of Rietveld's work is his use and workmanship of wood, at once artisanal and elegant: much of his furniture was made from standard-size laths, as Rietveld hoped it would be mass-produced rather than handcrafted.
