DESCRIPTION

Pierre Jeanneret, tripod stool, teak and iron, circa 1960. Medium height stool in solid teak and iron. Round tripod structure in welded iron, lacquered grey, with a circular foot rest bar. Round seat in teak, slightly concave.
Provenance and certificates available. Another interesting and nowadays relevant fact about these and other Chandigarh chairs is that all pieces were made from the trees which were logged because of the city built, so an early adaptation of ecological thinking.
