PJ-SI-28-A

This chair, designed by Pierre Jeanneret in 1956, is an iconic piece of design. It is raw in its simplicity. The A-shaped legs are typical of many Chandigarh items. The floating backrest is a detail which brings the shape into a surprising balance. There is an intriguing contrast between the solid wood pieces and the thin caning. Its patinated teak gives this chair a strong character, showing the traces of age and its uniqueness. It is, finally, a historic piece from a UNESCO World Heritage site, designed by the most important architect of the 20th century. The chair has been restored, the cane redone, and a cushion added to protect the caning. It's for daily use. We also offer larger chair sets.
