The Molteni Gio Ponti D.154.2 armchair is part of the Gio Ponti collection from luxury Italian brand Molteni&C, re-issuing furniture by Gio Ponti, the great Twentieth century architect and designer.
Stop Press: the D.154.2 has been awarded the 2024 Compasso d'Oro Career Award for Products by ADI (Italian Design Association). To celebrate, Molteni crafted two D.154.2 armchairs in the original colours Gio Ponti envisioned for Villa Planchart in the 1950s, donating one to Fundación Anala y Armando Planchart in Caracas, Venezuela, and the other to ADI. The chair also won a Wallpaper Design Award in 2016 and is now a Molteni&C icon.
It was designed for one of the projects closest to Gio Ponti's heart, the Planchart collectors' villa in Caracas (1953-57). Today this enveloping armchair has a rigid polyurethane frame, a soft polyurethane counter-frame and a comfortable seat cushion, on chromed steel legs with non-slip plastic feet ends.
Upholster it in any fabric or leather from the Molteni&C textile range, or provide your own fabric, subject to approval by Molteni. Choose the interior and exterior in the same category and colour, or an exterior leather cover with an interior fabric cover. Our design team can send samples and discuss the options.
Every piece complies with the design and materials in the original Gio Ponti documents, and carries a serial number and a screen-printed signature of the architect guaranteeing its origin and authenticity.
The Gio Ponti collection also includes a matching D.154.2 garden armchair, as well as dining tables, sideboards, armchairs, coffee tables, shelving, rugs and accessories - see related products below.
