Product Description

Mezzadro Seat

Known for their witty repurposing of unorthodox objects, brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni created the Mezzadro seat by attaching a tractor seat to a steel stem. Unveiled at the 1957 Triennial at Villa Olmo, the Mezzadro was lauded for its inventiveness and has since become a classic example of mid-twentieth century design ingenuity. Made with chromium-plated steel stem, red lacquered seat, and steam-treated beech footrest.
