MHC.1
Brand:
After an initial limited reissue of 100 numbered pieces, it is now available in two new unnumbered versions, in the unprecedented honey-stained emien and black-stained ash finishes.
MHC.1 is a reissue of the prototype of the first modern piece of furniture made by Molteni&C, the chest of drawers designed by Werner Blaser. It never went into production, but it won first prize at the 1955 Cantù International Competition, the first “Selettiva,” convened to revitalize the image of Italian manufacturing. The jury consisted of Gio Ponti, Alvar Alto, Romano Barocchi, Carlo de Carli, and Finn Juhl. The construction system is unique, based on a simple triple-fork joint.
