Image description

Made by Bracciodiferro, Genoa, Italy. Challenging the uniformity of mass production and experimenting with common industrial materials are hallmarks of Gaetano Pesce's designs. Here, pliable fiberglass is impregnated with resin, draped over a clothesline and block of wood, and sat on to create a stiff chair. Variations in the folds and the imprints left by the chair's initial occupant achieve the desirable individual nuances that are characteristic of handmade production.
