The chair is a design by the Swiss architect and furniture designer Pierre Jeanneret (1896 - 1967). Origin Chandigarh/India, around 1950/60. Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier ran a joint architectural office in Paris from 1923 to 1940. Together they worked on the construction of the test city of Chandigarh in northwest India. Chandigarh is the capital of the Indian part of the Punjab and, alongside Brazil's capital Brasilia, is considered the second major urban development project in the 20th century. The foundation stone for the city was laid in 1951. Furniture that was designed specifically for the buildings in this city is very popular today. Even Hollywood greats like to surround themselves with Pierre Jeanneret's designs. Unfortunately, the increasing popularity of these objects has meant that they are increasingly being counterfeited. Based on the previous owner's statement of origin, we can assume that our chair is actually an original. Some details clearly speak for this. However, we cannot give a guarantee. The best way to convince yourself of its authenticity is to look at the pictures. The solid teak wooden parts are in a cleaned, gently restored condition, with a pronounced patina. Back and seat part with natural wickerwork. Good, stable and usable condition. Seat height 43.5cm. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs, designer records, or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
