Description
Pair of Pierre Chapo s45 'Chlacc' chairs in Solid Elm, France 1970s.

The s45 'Chlacc' chair in solid elm designed in the 1970s, is one of the most sculptural works in Chapo's oeuvre. The pair has strong graphical lines, created by the intricate solid elmwood construction and has a beautiful patina. The base is constructed with 4 crossed legs that support the slightly curved seat. Two extended long slats rise from the back legs and form the backrest. The visible joints of the wood are a wonderful detail and very typical for the work of Pierre Chapo. Due to his obsession with proportions and the golden ratio the chairs are still as timeless as when they first saw the light of day. ⠀
