Description

Charlotte Perriand “LC7” dining chairs for Cassina, leather and steel, Italy, 1927, set of six.

An icon with a versatile and functional soul, the “LC7” was designed in 1927 by Charlotte Perriand for her apartment in Place Saint-Sulpice in Paris. First exhibited at the 1928 Salon des Artistes Décorateurs, it was also shown at the Salon d’Automne. It formed part of a collection that Charlotte Perriand co-created with Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret. Re-upholstered in prime quality cognac leather, this swivel chair features a four-leg chromed structure and an expanded polyurethane and padded polyester filling for the back and seat.
