Michel Cadestin “Orchidée” Three-Piece Modular Lounge Chair Set for Airborne

Creator: Michel Cadestin - Airborne
Offered by: Artibus365

Description
A striking and authentic three-piece Orchidée modular lounge chair set, designed by Michel Cadestin for Airborne in France during the 1970s. Defined by its low, enveloping profile and sculptural, petal-like silhouette, the design is a particularly expressive example of French space-age furniture.

The three elements may be arranged together as a generous lounge composition or positioned individually, allowing the set to adapt naturally to both residential and hospitality interiors. Upholstered in olive-green velvet, the chairs offer a deep, comfortable sit while retaining the bold, futuristic character that makes Cadestin’s work so distinctive.

A confident centrepiece for a collector’s interior, a design-led living room, or a gallery-like space.
