Louise Chaise in Copper Over Teak wood Handcrafted in India by Paul Mathieu
About the Item
The renowned designer Paul Mathieu has re-interpreted this classic form. Originating in 16thCentury France and known as a “Chaise Longue”, or “long chair”, it was adopted by the British and brought to India during “Raj” period. Paul’s low, curvaceous interpretation is a contemporary homage to the traditional Indian craft of metal clad furniture. This elegant piece is hand carved from solid pieces of teak. Pattern-makers trace and cut complex forms that will cover the table from thick sheets of copper, brass or white bronze or silver which can be smooth or hammered. Once the Chaise is joined together, it is meticulously encased in a tight-fitting metal skin.
Louise Chaise in Copper
Size- 70" x 24" x 33"H
Materials - Copper, Teak, Hand-Crafted
Please note that moisture in air, sudden change in temperature and natural movement of wood over time causes the metal to wrinkle or bubble up. We use well seasoned, reclaimed teak and high quality marine grade MDF (wherever technically possible) to avoid and delay the above mentioned changes. However a perfect stability of metal cannot be guaranteed.
Please note that our smooth finish metal clad pieces will have some unavoidable tool marks. This is proof that everything is done by hand. The smooth finish will not come out like a machine made perfect surface and the master artisan will do their best to make it look as good/clean/stable/perfect as he possibly can.
Our hammered finishes are a much safer option if the tool mark scratches are unacceptable. The hammered finishes are also safer against eventual bubbling/wrinkles due to natural forces as mentioned above.
We would love to send you some samples before order confirmation so that the finish can be judged and experienced first hand.
