Black Lacquer and Leather Pratfall Chair by Philippe Starck

Creator: Philippe Starck
Offered by: Machine Age

Description
Philippe Starck designed his distinctive Pratfall chair in 1982 and deployed it throughout the Café Costes in Paris in 1984. Taking its playful name from the tripod black enameled steel frame, his slightly larger, deeply comfortable lounge chair wraps the sitter in a curve of black-lacquered beech. The seat is upholstered in black leather.

We have two chairs available.
