This Parisian find is a true architectural gem. Everything about this very early chair captures the spirit of the early modernist period that was prevalent. Imagine this armchair in the early 1900s and perhaps even the late 1800s. And this armchair still exudes that feeling.
Today, the construction would be far too heavy; this also adds to the image of the era and even the mystery of this chair. Solid materials were chosen for the manufacturing and realization of the design, so no hollow side panels or plywood. All wood, all quality.
Take a close look at all the details and lines; it gets better and better.
