Pair of Bauche stools by Charlotte Perriand, Maison Sentou, circa 1950

Created in the 1950s by Charlotte Perriand, these two stools are part of the Bauche No. 19 model, produced by Maison Sentou. The solid ash frame consists of four round legs connected by cross braces, supporting a woven straw seat restored according to traditional methods. The piece embodies the synthesis between constructive modernism and rural references, a concept dear to Perriand in her thinking about housing. Produced by: Maison Sentou, circa 1950.
