Pierre Jeanneret PJ-SI-61-A Rare Folding Lounge Chair / Authentic Mid-Century

Product Details

Product Description

This distinctive piece of modernist furniture has become a well-known classic in design history due to its strong, direct shapes and elegant, lightweight seating crafted from cane. The contrast in materials reflects the designer's determined approach, while the perfect and comfortable angle adds to the piece's overall value. Its straightforward and well-proportioned construction is a testament to timeless modernist design and ultimately, a timeless classic. The piece is particularly special, as it contains unique signs and letters. At our gallery, we focus on rare pieces from Chandigarh, and our expertise lies in working with Pierre Jeanneret objects. We aim to preserve as much of the historical value as possible in our restorations, as authenticity is paramount in the face of counterfeit pieces on the market. We only sell authentic midcentury objects that come exclusively from India, where the owner of our gallery selects them personally. By purchasing unrestored pieces, we can maintain all traces and important indicators of authenticity. All wooden parts are original, and we do not replace damaged parts with new ones or mismatched pieces from other Jeanneret objects. The patina is critical, and we prioritize its preservation during restoration. Old cracks, scratches, worn lacquer, beam distortions, and oxidation from past human touch all signify the authenticity of the piece. As there are fake Chandigarh objects on the market without proper provenance papers, it's important to buy from experienced experts. We provide a Certificate of Authenticity with each purchase. Our gallery is located in Switzerland, the birthplace of Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier. Our owner studied architecture at the elite ETH in Zurich before opening his gallery, where he focused on the works of Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand, and Le Corbusier. We pride ourselves on our extensive selection of authentic midcentury pieces. You're welcome to visit our 450m2 showroom featuring raw design masterpieces displayed in our two glass houses.
