Senufo Bench from Ivory Cost, Monoxyle 1950

About the Item

Large Senoufo African bed, from the 1950s, from the Ivory Coast. This is an entirely original and vintage collector's item. The bench has never been waxed or treated, so its patina is the patina of time on raw wood. The bench or bed can be used as a large coffee table. One of the feet has a light period restoration which gives it a special charm. It is in very good vintage condition, perfectly stable on these feet. This is a monoxyle piece entirely made by hand. It will find its place perfectly with a collector or informed amateur, in a large living room.

  • Charlotte Perriand Cansado Bench, circa 1950
    By Steph Simon, Charlotte Perriand
    Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
    Bench designed by Charlotte Perriand. Edited by Steph Simon. Provenance: Cansado, Mauritania (Africa). In original condition with minor wear consistent of age and use, preserving a beautiful patina. Materials: Wood, metal Dimensions: D 70 cm x W 260 cm x H 24 cm. About designer: Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) she was born in Paris in 1903 and attended the E´cole de l'Union centrale des Arts de´coratifs from 1920-1925. Charlotte Perriand designed furniture made of anodized aluminum and chromium-plated steel, showing it at the 1927 "Salon d'Automne" in Paris. After meeting Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand worked with him and Pierre Jeanneret until 1937. The revolutionary tubular steel furnishings and system furniture designed by the three were presented as "E´quipement de l'habitation" (home equipment) at the 1929 "Salon d'Automne," where they were widely acclaimed. In 1930 the Union Des Artistes Modernes (UAM) was founded in Paris, a group that viewed itself as a countermovement challenging such establishment organizations as the "Salon d'Automne" and also advocated Art Deco and Modernism. From 1931 Charlotte Perriand showed her own work solo there. In 1937 Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret collaborated on designing a mountain chalet of sheet aluminum, which they showed at the "Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne" and later they came up with plans for prefab houses made of aluminum. In 1940 Charlotte Perriand became a design consultant to the Japanese Board...
