Pair of Blue Ligne Roset Facett Swivel Chairs by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec

About the Item

Portman Gallery is pleased to offer two Facett swivel chairs by R & E Bouroullec for Ligne Roset. This the chair equivalent of Phoebe Philo’s turn of the century work for Chloe. Designed in 2000, they are only now starting to make sense as turn of the century objects. They overstate their understatement. I see no end in sight for the continued appreciation (monetarily, and culturally) of these forms. Great for people who like: origami, Y2K, to swivel, the noughts, neutrals, 3-D printing, the color blue/gray, Phoebe Philo. This particular set was probably made closer to 2010-2015 because the fabric is in excellent condition. One of the higher price point choices, the cloth is a breathable wool blend that is both cozy and cooling, and stain-resistant. The Bouroullecs have recently announced that they will no longer collaborate. This chair form is easily one of their most successful joint designs. Available to view in Brooklyn. Easy next day local turnaround. Fabric information from LR CODA - Made from 90 % wool, Coda is woven in two different-coloured layers: the shade of the base layer is astonishingly revealed as one approaches the fabric. This distinctive construction serves to accentuate both the three-dimensional character of the fabric and the rhythmic motif of its bold texture. This fabric is both highly durable and easy to clean. WOOL 90%, POLYAMID (NYLON) 10%

  • Pair of Fornasetti Red Warrior Chariot/Baghe Lamps
    By Fornasetti
    Located in Brooklyn, NY
    Portman Gallery is pleased to offer this pair of vintage mid-century lamps from Fornasetti in good vintage condition, re-wired for the USA. Shades sold separately. Is there anyone for whom graphic design, Milan, humour and tromp l’oeil combine for more easily than Piero Fornasetti? The house which still produces works of the highest quality is still in operation today. But the nerdiest collectors will appreciate the vintage material which has never been reproduced, in this case these red and black enamel transfer lamps. Please inquire if you’d like the silk string shades. Photos explain condition: small losses. “The disproportion between the objects and the settings where they are placed creates new, surreal atmospheres in which a lamp is as important as a building, a salt shaker is as important as a tower, a tabletop is as important as a piazza...
