Armchair 905 - Vico Magistretti - Cassina

Cassina 905 Chair by Vico Magistretti – Black Cowhide & Solid Wood Elegance (1964)

Timeless in form, refined in function — the 905 chair is a masterstroke of Italian modernism, designed in 1964 by Vico Magistretti for Cassina. An iconic embodiment of craftsmanship and cultural heritage, this chair blends architectural clarity with material richness.

Elegant Simplicity, Expertly Constructed

Crafted from solid wood with cylindrical legs and gracefully curved armrests, the frame supports a self-supporting cowhide seat — offering structure, comfort, and durability without excess. The precision of Cassina’s legendary joinery is matched by the tactile strength of saddle-stitched leather.

Where Craft Meets Innovation
