The chair "PJ-Si-26-A" is a design by the Swiss architect and furniture designer Pierre Jeanneret (1896-1967). Origin Chandigarh/ India, approx. 1950/60. Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier led a joint architecture firm in Paris from 1923 to 1940. Together they worked on the construction of the retort city of Chandigarh in northwestern India. Chandigarh is the capital of the Indian part of Punjab and, alongside Brazil's capital Brasilia, is the second major urban project in the 20th century. The foundation stone for the city was laid in 1951. Furniture that was designed especially for the buildings of this city today enjoy the greatest popularity. Even Hollywood sizes like to surround themselves with designs Pierre Jeanneret ’s. The increasing popularity of these objects unfortunately brought with it that they are being fake more and more frequently. Due to the previous owner's origin, we can assume that our armchair is actually an original. Some details clearly speak for it. However, we cannot give a guarantee. It is best to be convinced by the authenticity using the pictures or when visiting us. A professional restorer stabilized the structure and cleaned the solid teak wooden parts. The chair has a very pronounced patina, but is in good condition. Back and seated part with natural network. Seat height 42cm. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
from
