Chair and coffee table Margherita Franco Albini Bonacina

Franco Albini's "Margherita chair" is one of the most remarkable pieces of furniture created by Lombard architect and designer Franco Albini in the 1950s. He has partnered with Franca Helg on various projects over the years. Albini's inspiration in creating the chair is to hang things and people in the air. Since it is a chair made of wood, rattan and reed, a garden is the ideal setting for this. One year after its creation, the Margherita chair won first place at the 9th Milan Triennale. In addition, the MoMA in New York, the Museum of Art in Philadelphia and the Triennale Design Museum in Milan presented this beautiful and amazing wooden chair. The name "Margherita" is an Italian word meaning "daisy". In addition, the rattan and reed structure will give confidence to anyone who sits on it. It helps to abandon any thought to the suspension of a dream or a break with reality. Franco Albini designed this wooden chair for Vittorio Bonacina. Albini's furniture mainly features a traditional Italian craft practice with minimal design concepts. He is famous for using handcrafted materials such as the braided cane for most of the flagship works, such as the Margherita and Gala chairs. In addition, he used a modern aesthetic for the design and construction of his products, which is especially evident for the Margherita chair. With the combination of Albini's pure talent and his training under the apprenticeship of the famous Italian furniture designer Gio Ponti, Albini slowly grew as an artist. He carefully developed objects and other designs with ease of use and style. This fun and aesthetically appealing design is perfect for a modern, bohemian, eclectic or folkloric style home. The matching Franco Albini coffee table is an original modern rattan coffee table from the 1950s with the original glass top. This table has iconic lines of Albini, the unique design offers storage space for magazines or books.
