French lounge armchairs in eggplant-colored velvet, France, 1960s

The post-war years saw unprecedented creativity in french design, as evidenced by these chairs. Like most mid-century european designers, french designers were also convinced of the power of good design, with charlotte perriand stating that "the extension of the art of habitation is the art of living". Beautiful armchair in aubergine velvet and design base in beech. It lacks a button on the backrest and a cat scratch on one side of the chair. The rest is in very good condition. Very comfortable armchair. Seat height 43 cm.
