Persimmon Chair
The pinnacle of Japanese modernity.
In 1960, an innovative chair using Japan's first racket structure (with a slot processing technique) was redesigned by Jo Sakai and presented at the Milan Triennale. The exhibition layout at the Milan Triennale was designed by Junzo Sakakura Architectural Research Institute, and Jo Sakai, who was a member of the institute at the time, was responsible for the furniture design. The organically shaped backrest is inspired by the curve created when a persimmon is cut vertically in half. It pairs exceptionally well with the mushroom base table designed by Jo Sakai, making it an ideal dining chair. You can choose the upholstery from vinyl leather or fabric. The vinyl leather model features a treatment that makes it resistant to stains on the surface, and even if dirt adheres, it is easy to clean, providing a material with anti-soiling properties. It is also resistant to discoloration, ensuring that the color remains vibrant over time. The fabric model is made from a wool blend material, giving it a soft and gentle impression. Additionally, the Triennale model with a two-tone upholstery option features colors selected by Jo Sakai himself.
