Pierre Jeanneret Chandigarh Armchair - 1950's
-
Description
These armchairs by Pierre Jeanneret were created for the city of Chandigarh in India, the utopian city created by his cousin Le Corbusier. These chairs are quite sought after and rare. They are marked PSA-CC°315/166 and have a wooden base with seating and backrest in their original wool fabric. Another interesting and nowadays relevant fact about these and other Chandigarh chairs is that all pieces were made from the trees which were logged because of the city built, so an early adaptation of ecological thinking. We have three of these chairs available, priced per chair.
