Set of six rattan dining chairs designed by Haruki Miajima for Pierantonio Bonacina 1962. The chairs are fitted with seat pads, covered in China Seas printed cotton as seen in snapshots. The PierAntonio Bonacina company was located in Lurago D’ Erba Italy in the 1960’s. Lurago D’Erba is located in Brianza which has been a major furniture making region in Italy since the end of the 19th Century. There were actually two Bonacina companies operating at that time. Vittorio Bonacina and Pierantonio Bonacino are now merged and continue to produce extraordinary Rattan and Cane today. The company produced hand made furniture in Brianza, made of materials that were imported from the Pacific. Designs have been produced for the company by a panoply of designers which include, Gio Ponti, Franco Albini, Franca Helg, Nanna Ditzel, Tito Agnoli, De Pas D’Urbino E Lomazzi, Renzo Mongiardino, Olaf Von Bohr and many others. We currently have a number of other pieces by Pierantonio Bonacina.

Pair of Rattan Armchairs designed by Tito Agnoli for the Pierantonio Bonacina Company. The company made rattan furniture starting in the late nineteenth century. They imported the materials but designed and built their furniture in Erba Italy, which is in the center of the Italian furniture making area around Como. Designers of Bonacina furniture often trained at the prestigious Politechnico di Milano. Because the design was a success, there were knock-offs made by other companies. These chairs are the originals from Bonacina. The last image shows a page from the Sept 1963 Domus Magazine. The chair is on the upper right corner with its description.
