About the Item

Crafted in solid Indian teak, the PJ-SI-45-A lounge chairs designed by Pierre Jeanneret feature the iconic X-leg structure — a hallmark of Jeanneret’s Chandigarh designs. The wood is in very good structural condition and retains its original shellac finish, offering a warm, irregular gloss unique to hand-finished pieces. This original pair of Jeanneret X-leg easy chairs from Chandigarh will be professionally recaned using the traditional technique and lightly restored, preserving the rich patina and character of the wood. These chairs blend mid-century modern form with natural materials and a timeless sense of calm, making them a versatile addition to both modern and eclectic interiors. Each chair retains its original markings: SMX / ATL / 14 and SMX / ATL / 19.. Sold individually or as a set. Literature: Eric Touchaleaume and Gerald Moreau, 'Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret: The Indian Adventure, Design-Art-Architecture' (Paris: Gourcuff Gradenigo, 2011), 339, 563, 568.
