This is a primitive chair of the Naga people. Quiet in its stance yet commanding in presence, it is a remarkably compelling piece that combines the strength of a sculptural work with the simplicity of folk furniture. It is believed to date from the early 20th century. Over many decades, the wood has taken on a deeply smoked tone, transforming into a rich dark brown surface that seems to embody time itself. Countless blade marks remain visible across the surface, and the worn patina softly reflects light. More than a piece of furniture, it stands as an art object capable of anchoring an entire space. The Naga people are a collective term for indigenous tribes living in the mountainous regions spanning present-day Northeast India and Myanmar. With their own distinct culture and spirituality, they developed powerful forms of craftsmanship, including wood carving and weaving. Born from a life lived in close relationship with nature, their creations value symbolism and function over decoration, resulting in a profoundly primal beauty. Naga chairs...

Wonderful original Easy Chair designed by Pierre Jeanneret. Model no. PJ-SI-29-A. The Easy Chair is masterpiece of modernist design, comfortable and practical, showcasing Jeanneret’s iconic “compass” style, with triangular-section legs, curved backrest and sloping armrests. Made in richly coloured Sissoo, lightly restored and re-caned to retain as much of the chair’s original patina as possible. Pierre Jeanneret (22 March 1896 - 4 December 1967) was a Swiss architect who collaborated with his cousin, Le Corbusier, designing furniture for Le Corbusier's vast modernist complex at Chandigarh. Jeanneret remained for over 15 years as the project’s chief architect and the city remains a masterpiece of the modern vision. The pair pioneered a new aesthetic that placed function and order over embellishment—Jeanneret’s work imbuing the strict geometry of modernism with lighter materials like cane and wood. Jeanneret also collaborated with other modern masters, Charlotte Perriand on experiments in aluminium and wood, and Jean Prouve developing prefabricated housing.
