Pierre Jeanneret Chairs
Swiss, 1896-1967
If his famed cousin and longtime colleague Charles-Édouard Jeanneret — better known as Le Corbusier — was the visionary, then Pierre Jeanneret was the member of the architecture and design team who got things done. In recent years, Jeanneret has emerged from Le Corbusier’s shadow, as collectors have discovered his simple and striking chairs, benches, coffee tables and other furniture creations.
Jeanneret studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Geneva and after he graduated in 1921 he became a partner in Le Corbusier’s office in Paris. The pair collaborated on numerous residential projects, most notably the Villa Savoye, the iconic modernist house in suburban Paris completed in 1931.
Jeanneret also worked with the great Charlotte Perriand on the Grand Modele line of tubular metal furnishings that was a sensation at the annual Salon d’Automne design expo in 1929. A rift developed between Jeanneret and his cousin during World War II, as the former joined the French resistance, while Le Corbusier cooperated with the occupying authorities in Vichy. The two did not work together again until 1950, when Le Corbusier persuaded Jeanneret to help execute the master plan for the new city of Chandigarh in Punjab, India. Jeanneret lived and worked there until the final years of his life.
A hallmark of Jeanneret’s furniture designs is his great sensitivity to materials. In contrast to the tubular-steel chairs produced by Marcel Breuer and other members of the Bauhaus, the chromed metal pieces designed by Jeanneret and Perriand — including such as the now-classic LC4 chaise longue and the Grand Confort lounge chair — have a sensuous, relaxed and welcoming look. Conversely, while Jeanneret uses essentially geometric forms for his wooden seating pieces, they exude warmth by nature of the material.
One of Jeanneret’s first manufactured designs in wood is the Model 92 Scissors chair, licensed by Hans and Florence Knoll when they were touring postwar France. But Jeanneret’s finest work in furniture was done in Chandigarh, and these are the pieces that have earned him recent renown.
Crafted of teak, the Chandigarh designs range from low-slung lounge chairs and armchairs with cane seats to desks and tables, most with Jeanneret’s signature drafting compass-shaped legs. Many such pieces on the market today are refurbished, having been found by dealers languishing in scrapyards in India in the late 1990s. Chandigarh is now taking better care of its modernist heritage, making available Jeanneret works all the rarer.

Pierre Jeanneret 'Senat' Chair Designed for Chandigarh's High Court, 1959-60
By Pierre Jeanneret
Located in bergen op zoom, NL
Authentic original unrestored Pierre Jeanneret 'Senat' chair finished in beautifully grained Teak wood with old damaged leatherette upholstery. The 'Senat' chairs were primarily designed for the high court of Chandigarh although they were also used in smaller numbers among some of the other administrative buildings contained within Chandigarh.
This is a nice, honest and structurally sound authentic example, ripe for restoration. Jeanneret employed local artisans to hand fabricate these chairs and several variations of the 'Senat' chair were produced with model designations 'A',' B', ''C' etc. This is the harder to find 91cm tall (35.83 inches) high back model, we found examples of the same high back model for sale at the exclusive ' Galerie Patrrick Seguin' in Paris, a world renowned Jeanneret specialist, and we bow to his detailed knowledge, Seguin dates this particular model/construction to 1959-60. Please refer to image 2 to compare.
Although the current leatherette upholstery is clearly very old we have been able to determine that this chair had actually been reupholstered once before during it's lifetime. The very old and original type of early latex foam , left in place from the original upholstery, is still clearly visible attached to the chair's wood structure, you can see that when this chair was reupholstered in the current black leatherette the upholsterer just placed a layer of a more modern darker tone foam straight on top of the original latex foam. Please refer to image 4.
Given the plethora of Jeanneret knock offs or modern copies offered on the market we have decided to leave this genuine mid century example in completely original unrestored condition so prospective clients can be be sure of the mid century authenticity and provenance of this example. The chair clearly needs to be completely reupholstered, it's teal wood frame has some surface blemishes commensurate with age and use and is still structurally strong and sound . We are happy to undertake the reupholstery for you should you wish. Please reach out for estimates of the cost to reupholster the chair for you.
According to Chandigarh heritage there were two phases in Chandigarh’s furniture...
