About the Item

Stool designed by Charlotte Perriand for Les Arcs ski resort, circa 1960, France. This pine wood stool is in nice condition, with signs of use consistent with age, while retaining a lovely patina. Measurements: H 42,5 cm x W 45 cm x D 42,5 cm. Charlotte Perriand was a rare female voice among the Avant Garde designers whose designs shaped modern living in the early 20th century. As a student, she rejected the popular Beaux-Arts style and found inspiration instead in Machine Age technology. She joined the studio of Le Corbusier at 24, where she experimented with steel, aluminum, and glass, developing a series of tubular steel chairs that remain a modern icon. In 1940, she traveled to Japan to advise the government on how to export products to the West, and spent WWII exiled in Vietnam, where she discovered local woodwork and weaving techniques and embraced natural materials. “The most important thing to realize is that what drives the modern movement is a spirit of enquiry; it’s a process of analysis and not a style,” she said near the end of her life. “We worked with ideals.”.
