Description
Beautiful set of six "box" armchairs by Pierre Jeanneret, circa late 1950s.

These chairs show some the most intricate caning we've ever seen on Jeanneret chairs. Please look carefully. The chairs have aged gracefully over the past 70 years and now show fantastic character.

Please note: original Jeanneret chairs from Chandigarh were handmade in different workshops over the span about 15 years. There is minor variation in the height, width, and depth of each chair. They are not cookie-cutter matching chairs.

Four chairs show a similar finish, while two of the chairs have a darker finish.
