| Function & properties | The brilliant mirror effect of the Panton Chair Classic Chrome Edition is created by a metallization; an effect achieved via in highly specialized manual work in which several layers of paint are applied one after the other. The fact that not only the surface of the chair is metallized, means that on the one hand it is more robust and scratch-resistant, and on the other hand more flexible and stable, so that it can easily yield to the sitter and lightly swing. |

...A 1950s Denmark that also saw the origins of considerations on the possibility of a chair that it would be 1967 before it was realised and 1968 before it became a series product: Verner Panton's eponymous chair through Vitra... A Panton Chair that, arguably, couldn't have been realised in the Denmark of that period, regardless of the symbolism of Jacobsen's SAS Royal hotel, required Verner Panton to look outwith Denmark for a partner; a Panton Chair that took the cantilever of a Stam's S 33 and its contemporaries and not only translated it from steel tubing into polyurethane, thereby helping confirm the durability of synthetic plastics, but also rounded the Cubist corners of the Functionalist Modernist steel tube furniture of the 1920s as 30s, and thereby not only began to find a way back to the flowing curves of a Michael Thonet, but also created a piece of furniture more attune with the less formal, less rigid, less austere, less quadratic, somewhat freer, mellower, organic, western European society of the 1970s...
