Pair of Black Leather Side Dining Chairs Les Arcs Charlotte Perriand Aluminium
A pair of iconic and super-stylish black leather & brushed aluminium dining or occasional chairs in good vintage condition. Based on Charlotte Perriand's quintessential French design classic, the Les Arcs chair, these chairs ooze 1970s-chic and will add two-tone colouring, vintage charm and a striking and smart Mid-Century aesthetic to any interior.
Practical, robust and attractive, these super chairs are made of excellent quality stitched leather with concentric ribbed detailing and strikingly juxtaposing, shapely, sleek and streamlined tubular brushed aluminium frames. They have a minimalist-yet-refined functionality, which marries the French flair for style with a European post-war, semi-industrial sensibility, to create a charmingly unique and strikingly attractive, very ‘Bauhaus’, Brutalist-Chic aesthetic.
Comfortable, firm and high-seated, these are ideal as stylish dining chairs and also make stunning side or occasional seating. Made in the style of Perriand's classic 1960s Les Arcs chair, these do not stack and feature very cool bordering and curved stitching to the leather, but aside from that you'd be hard-pushed to tell the difference – apart from reasonable price tag!
The original versions of these chairs can sell for well over £5,000 per chair, with even modern replicas going for well over £1,000 each, so grab these gorgeous vintage icons while you can!
This listing price is for two chairs – we have five chairs in total, please get in touch and see our other listings for a set of four or a single chair.
CONDITION
These are in good vintage condition. Built to last, these are structurally sound and very sturdy. The excellent quality leather is in very good condition with some minor to-be-expected marks and has been treated to keep it looking fantastic, protected and moisturised. The brushed aluminium frames and rivets show varying signs of metallic ageing, ranging from minor signs of age to some pitting in places, adding to their vintage authenticity and their robust look. The frames have been treated and polished to bring them back to their vintage best as much as possible. Overall this is a super set of chairs in lovely vintage condition with signs of age and if well looked after they should be just as super for many decades to come – please see the photos.
