Offered by: LCT Home Ltd

Description
Joseph Mathieu art deco 'Multiples' chair
1920's Lyon, France

This chair is a very early design by JH Mathieu, Lyon, France

Joseph Mathieu has designed and manufactured some of the most iconic french metal stacking chairs to date and was a direct competitor to tolix at the time of production

This is a beautifully designed and rare piece
83.5cm height, 35.5cm width, 37cm depth, 43cm seat height, 36cm back rest width

The seat has a diamond cut out pattern and the backrest has the most beautiful deco/nouveau styling

The chair has a spring mechanism under the seat so that the back rest has gentle movement, not rigid as later fully cast models

The legs are super fine and shaped in a nouveau fashion, they have cut out areas which were lost in the design of the later models

The chair has no paint, its in its raw original polished metal finish

The original brass makers plate is attached with copper rivets on the top edge of the backrest

This model is extremely rare and could even be a prototype as no other images or similar pieces can be found or any reference to the unusual spring mechanism
