All auctions / Miscellaneous / Cassina - Pierre Jeanneret - Chair - Tribute to Pierre Jeanneret - Hardwood


This Pierre Jeanneret chair ranks among the best-known pieces of furniture in the Capitol Complex of Chandigarh, used to furnish meeting rooms and several administrative offices of the Secretariat palace. UNESCO World Heritage 2016, the architecture of Le Corbusier's Capitol Complex, designed in Chandigarh in 1951, has received recognition for celebrating a nation open to modernity. The 055 Capitol Complex chair features a solid solid wood frame without arms, composed of separate elements including the characteristic inverted “V” side supports, a distinctive trait of all the furniture in Pierre Jeanneret's collection. Compared to the office chair of the same series, the supports are more compact, as they do not extend to the armrests. Refined, elegant, essential. This chair fits perfectly in any context, residential or contract. A true work of art in the history of design. Characteristics of Pierre Jeanneret’s 055 chair: • The chair features a seat-back sequence in Vienna straw, continuous and joined by two wooden profiles with a thick geometric section. These elements structure, with the flush legs, a powerful yet simple ensemble Dimensions L. 45 cm - P. 45 cm - H. 81/43 cm
