Details
Rare early Eva setting designed by Giovanni Travasa for Bonacina in 1965, comprising four Eva chairs and a coffee table. An early production variant, each chair shows a seven‑ribbon-wide structure with the base ribbon on the back integrated into the form while not serving as a support brace.
Provenance
- Purchased directly from Bonacina by Alan and Ada Selwyn while on holiday in Italy.
- Custom ordered, manufactured, and shipped to their home in Toorak, Victoria (Australia).
- Installed in the cabana room of their residence, ‘Naliandrah,’ designed by Holgar & Holgar in 1967.
- Sourced directly from the Selwyn estate.
Materials and finish
- Original white painted rattan frames.
- Original vinyl, which began as red and has uniformly shifted to a yellow tone over time due to indirect UV exposure. The set has not been used outdoors; the cabana room had generous natural light from a wall of large windows.
Condition
- Overall very good, well cared for.
- Rattan retains its original white paint with minor chips only.
- All chairs are structurally sound.
- Coffee table shows paint wear to the top surface.
Configuration
- Four Eva chairs.
- One coffee table.
