Pierre Chapo Iconic Stool Model 'S31', Elm Wood, French Design, 1974
About the Item
Pierre Chapo’s iconic S31 stool, created in France in 1974. Perhaps the most sought-after stool of the era, testifying the architectural form-language of Chapo’s work. The design plays on the assembly of three converging legs and manages to achieve an elegant, solid & stable base in elm wood which holds the full weight of a person on the seat surface. The shape of the seat is reminiscent of Charlotte Perriand’s stools, one of Chapo’s contemporaries. The technical challenge adds to the stool’s aesthetic appeal and sculptural work.
In original used, but very good condition.

Pierre Chapo
Pierre Chapo, who was born in Paris, France, in July 1927, was initially interested in becoming a professional painter. However, after a chance meeting with a shipbuilder who introduced him to wood and woodworking, Chapo changed his focus and decided to study architectural studies at the prestigious École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
After graduating, Chapo and his wife, the sculptor and painter Nicole Lormier, started traveling extensively through Scandinavia and Central America. Among the many places the couple visited was Taliesin West, the home and studio of Frank Lloyd Wright — a visit that had a lasting influence on Chapo’s future work and designs.
