PANTON’S PROTOTYPE CHAIR


The Panton Chair is without a dubt Verner Panton most well known design. The next “new” piece in the collection I will show you is Verner’s own prototype / pre-serie chair for the Panton Chair made in 1967!

I have seen another prototype /pre-serie chair in yellow/light orange wich also comes from Verner’s home, at the Vitra museum. That one was in  very good condition. This has some marks and even colour spots but I haven’t decide if I shall clean it or not. I like the traces from the past and especially with this provinance. 

Below you see it with a red Panton Chair from Fehlbaum in 1971 wich was the 3:rd production and also a another Vitra prototype in light red from the 5:th edition in 1998.
