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. This is an anti-design piece which carries an uncompromising familiarity. All parts are authentic. They are done in pine wood. Solid and rich in texture, it introduces a specific warmth. Charming irregularities show that each piece is unique. As Perriand tended to create pieces which support simple living, it is no wonder that she was also inspired by vivid landscapes of the French Alps. Looking up to slow and practical life there, she designed this stool which resembles the ones that were used for cow milking in rural areas. The piece is in its original condition, while the surfaces have softly been restored. It was designed for Les Arcs ski resort. I like using this stool as a subtle detail. It introduces so much warmth into the setting with its warm material and familiar shape, while offering many possibilities in use. 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. Provenance: Les Arcs, France. 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
