The Cassina Leggera is a wooden chair and the flagship of the partnership between Gio Ponti, Cesare Cassina and the company's carpentry experts. In 1957, Ponti revised his basic design once again - the resulting Superleggera impressed with its technically elaborate details and its extremely low weight, to which it owes its name. Both designs can only be distinguished at second glance. The main difference concerns proportions and details; in the Leggera, the side parts of the back are rounded, in the Superleggera they are triangular.
