Hand & Foot Chair
This week, oddity auction scout Michael-Anne Rauback has been on the hunt for unusual vintage chairs, not to buy but just to... appreciate. She shared with me her three favorite finds, starting with this gorgeous Pedro Friedeberg Hand & Foot Chair from the 1960s. I'll post the others over the next two days.

Politically ambivalent --it's a left hand on a right foot.
But I like it that way --it has a sense of balance about it.
This reminds me very much of one of the clips in the ~1976 Bruno Bozzeto parody of Fantasia, called Allegro non Troppo.
