Description: This item expresses a specific rawness. There is no need for precise execution or the desire to appear sophisticated. It … more This item expresses a specific rawness. There is no need for precise execution or the desire to appear sophisticated. It is simple, self-evident, and direct. It is made out of basic elements, illustrating a new language: essential and cleared of everything irrelevant. Here the silhouette is strong. It is presented through the outline and shape of the piece. The void between becomes an important part of the item itself. The surfaces of the seats are done in cane. Contrasting the massive wooden parts, which frame it nicely, cane expresses a lightness with its transparency. The geometrical patterns of the canework create a charming shadowscape. We do the caning like it was done in chandigarh. We use durable and thicker cane. All massive wood parts are authentic. They are done in indian teak. Rich in texture, the wood is vivid and comes in cognac colour. The surface is treated with shellac and there are several layers of original shellac. It provides smooth irregular gloss different from that of the sterile lacquerware nowadays. Charming irregularities show that each piece is unique. Chandigarh items are famous for a-shaped legs, also known as compass legs. On the inner side, the edges are sharper, while the outer edges are rounded. The shape of the legs illustrates the weight they carry. Here it is obvious that pierre jeanneret, together with jean prouvé and le corbusier, had a structural, not decorative, expression. I think the piece blends well with many interior styles. It can support pure, modern aesthetics by giving them a warmer character with its natural materials and warm colours. This item is a lower version of pj-si-25-a chair, and it was made for younger students, due to its height and proportions. P! galerie’s selection is mainly focused on rare french mid-century modern design artefacts by pierre jeanneret, jean prouvé, le corbusier, and charlotte perriand. Artefacts from our carefully curated collection are handpicked, and all traces and important indicators of authenticity are evaluated professionally. We try to preserve as much of patina as possible during the process of restoration, as it defines these historic pieces. Each object comes with a certificate of authenticity, offering you the opportunity to own a valuable artefact originating from a unesco-designated world heritage site. Not only do we cooperate with museums and offer auction houses our services and expert opinion, we also look forward to welcoming you as a private collector and connoisseur. 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
misattribution less
