Estimate:
€500 - €800
THE LC1 SLING CHAIR, BY LE CORBUSIER, FOR CASSINA, in chrome plated steel with hide seat and adjustable backrest, leather arms, bearing stamp and no.14900, 60cm (w) x 65cm (d) x 64cm (h)
The LC1 Sling Chair by Le Corbusier is included in the design collection of MOMA. Each piece is signed and numbered by the manufacturer. A reinterpretation of the British "officers chair", it was first exhibited at the Salon D' Automne in 1929 with such icons as the chaise lounge and the Grand Confort collection.
Designed in 1928 for the furnishing of a villa in the Ville d' Avray, it utilizes exposed structural elements with hide leather seat and back with banded armrests. Sleek and elemental, the LC1 Chair (1928) exemplifies Le Corbusier's concept of "equipment de l'habitation." The backrest, attached to the frame by a rod that allows the angle of tilt to change, moves as you shift, offering continuous support.
