Totem Chair — Paolo Rossi
21st Century
A one-of-a-kind sculptural chair by Italian artist Paolo Rossi, handcrafted from reclaimed materials including carved wood, hammered iron, and salvaged industrial elements.
The dramatically elongated backrest and rhythmic open forms evoke the presence of a totem, transforming the chair into both a functional object and a sculptural statement. Rossi’s instinctive approach to material and form gives the piece a strong expressive presence while maintaining its practical function as seating.
Both furniture and sculpture, the chair introduces a striking vertical presence and rich material texture to an interior.
Paolo Rossi is an Italian sculptor from Piemonte whose work explores primordial forms through reclaimed materials and traditional carving techniques.
