Molded from durable black polyethylene, this piece features a striking serpentine silhouette — a hallmark of Panton’s biomorphic, playful design ethos.

Date-stamped June 1996 and bearing both the Verner Panton signature and Innovation® mark, this is a verified original from one of the most iconic figures in 20th-century design. Originally intended for public and modular environments, this piece stands equally strong as a standalone sculpture or functional seating.

Designed for flexibility, this sculptural piece can be used as a flowing bench or flipped upright as an abstract accent chair — a hallmark of Verner Panton’s multifunctional approach to form and function.

Unlike the more common red or primary color variants, this dark gray version is rare.
