Vintage Gaja chair by Kazuhide Takahama for Simon Gavina
Vintage Italian Gaja chair designed in 1974 by the Japanese architect Kazuhide Takahama for the brand Simon Gavina. Originally the chair was designed for a small local restaurant, but due to the ultra-light construction and timeless design, it became incredibly sought-after and over time became part of Simon Gavina's 'CollectionULTRAMOBILE' - which includes designs by e.g. Carlo Scarpa, Marcel Breuer, Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Man Ray and Vico Magistretti. If you look at the collection as a whole, it gives an incredibly fine picture of what we today perceive as ''Italian Style''. The Simon Gavina brand is today owned by Italian Cassina.
