About the Item

Pierre Jeanneret “PJ-R-27-B” Five-Hole File Rack, Provenance HCS Chandigarh An authentic “PJ-R-27-B” five-hole file rack designed by Pierre Jeanneret for the High Court Secretariat in Chandigarh. This rare model features a sideboard with four uniform compartments and one elevated double compartment, its sculptural legs formed seamlessly by the side panels of the body itself. With its pared-down geometry and bold presence, this piece embodies the raw, sharp aesthetic of Jeanneret’s utilitarian designs for Chandigarh. Marked HCS for provenance. As architect Joseph Dirand notes of Pierre Jeanneret’s work: “Each piece is unique. The same, but different — which brings another layer of poetry.” We welcome all enquiries and ship worldwide.
