Maxime Old, De Pont Armchair

About the Item

This armchair is a contemporary edition of the De Pont armchair designed by the famous designer Maxime Old in 1965. Originally, this armchair was created for the bank of the European Industrial and Financial Union on rue Gaillon in Paris. It is made of leather with its base in varnished brushed iron. Today, the Anne Jacquemin Sablon gallery is showcasing this iconic armchair. The De Pont Armchair is entirely crafted from leather, featuring a seat, a backrest, and X-shaped legs with cuffs made of varnished brushed iron. Maxime Old (1910-1991) is one of the most significant designers and interior architects of the 20th century. His work was highly appreciated and recognized from the 1930s to the 1980s. Starting in the 1960s, he became more interested in creating more comprehensive furniture, considering the overall environment. As a result, he transitioned into an interior designer and was responsible for designing entire spaces, such as the Paquebot France and the Rouen City Hall. Today, the Anne Jacquemin Sablon gallery is publishing the original drawings by Maxime Old, which were not produced at the time. The pieces now produced are considered first editions based on the designs from the 1940s to the 1980s.
