Benches

Midcentury pair of benches by Giovanni Michelucci for Poltronova

Designed by renowned Italian architect Giovanni Michelucci and produced by Poltronova in 1964, this rare pair of benches in solid walnut reflects Michelucci’s organic approach to form and material.

Sculptural lines, formal simplicity, and a strong architectural presence define these pieces, which merge functionality with artisanal expressiveness, embodying the poetic sensibility of postwar Italian design.

Each piece bears Michelucci’s signature.
