Originally designed in 1973 by Afra and Tobia Scarpa for Molteni&C, the Monk Chair returns as part of the Heritage Collection. This re-edition preserves the original’s refined clarity, an interplay of solid wood, exposed joinery, and leather stretched over steel tubes.
Its name evokes the chair’s quiet elegance, while the design itself balances utility and sculptural presence. Whether used as a dining or side chair, Monk remains rooted in Scarpa’s philosophy of letting the past continue to speak through form and material.
