Designed by Charles Pollock
In 1982, the designer Charles Pollock created a real design classic: Penelope. The American designer developed for Castelli a revolutionary chair from a technical and formal point of view: a steel-wire sled base supports a seat permeable to air which consists in a steel-wire fence coated with synthetic resin. The elastic effect of the base is stressed by an integral polyurethane tube that acts as a shock-absorber. The armrest coverings are made of the same material providing additional comfort. With Penelope, Pollock translated into reality a new form of seat. That’s why this timeless classic still enjoys fame in today’s design world.

The design of the armchair combines, in a hybridisation process, two parts that are only apparently separate from the point of view of formal memory: the rotating tripod made of light die-cast aluminium, furnished with a visible shock-absorbing mechanism, and the enveloping shell made of Vienna cane stretched over a frame of hot-bent and machined […]
Characterized by a sophisticated balance between structure and seat, which appears to be suspended, it represents the typical expression of Italian craftmanship. The structure is realized in curved wood, with a natural, black stained or walnut finish, combined with a wooden or covered seat in various finishes.
