French Solid Wooden Tripod Chair, France, 1970s
About the Item
This tripod chair has a simple composition that mixes the aesthetics of rural handicraft with international modernism.
While many postwar French designers were embracing new industrial techniques and mass production, some, like Alexandre Noll, personally selected his materials and handmade each unique piece. Like Noll, this chair’s designer paid little attention to trends, preferring to let the material guide the design, letting the shape of the wood be the main source of inspiration. Thanks to this, the chair has an organic form and a focuses on the solid wood as a material. Even at first glance, this chair has a startling rawness, but with its warm-toned and slightly asymmetrical body, it is a greatly-balanced piece. Sensitive touches enliven the design, visible in the careful craftsmanship, especially in the carved seat and tripod legs.
The aesthetic of this tripod chair is somber, giving importance to eerie organic and rugged shapes. Through its eccentric geometries and expressive forms, this chair is the perfect piece to add visual and elemental interest to any interior.
