PIERRE CHAPO STOOLS TABOURETS PAIR S31 ELM FRANCE C1974 VINTAGE
-
Description
Early edition stools by Pierre Chapo, meticulously crafted from solid elm feature a thick seating with natural veining and three crossed feet. Visible joints along the seating's edge are typical of Pierre Chapo's creations. The base of the stool, built with three angled legs, provides stability and dynamic construction. Over the years, the stool has developed a beautiful, warm patina, giving it a rich character and unique charm. This natural aging process enhances the wood’s deep, earthy tones and can only be accomplished by decades of light exposure. Pierre Chapo, a French designer known for his deep appreciation of wood and craftsmanship, was heavily inspired by traditional joinery techniques and the work of architects like Charlotte Perriand. Notably, the signature rectangular joint in the seating—a hallmark of his work—was also a hallmark of Charlotte Perriand stools and tables.. This stool perfectly reflects Chapo's mastery in combining simplicity, functionality, and the beauty of natural materials. Two available, price is for this iconic set of Chapo's creation.

Message from Seller:
Pavilion is the collective vision of Deborah Colman and Neil Kraus, both graduates of the master of fine arts program at the Art Institute of Chicago. From a longstanding interest in art and design, frequent buying trips to France and Italy have influenced the direction of the gallery to offer items that are not easily sourced in Chicago and United States. Postwar design has been the focus for 18 yrs and we also look forward to new design that crosses boundaries and dialogues as well to the past
