The elegant and extravagant Lounge Chair designed by Claude Vassal combines classic elements with modern design. The unusual shape of the armrests and legs perfectly match the design of the seat and backrest, which have recently been new upholstered. Manufactured in France in 1950. The Lounge Chair is a typical example of the functionalism for which Vassal is known. Despite his love of classic and clear forms, his furniture is also characterised by unique features such as edging material and excavated lines.His influence on post-war france design can only be matched by important French designers like Pierre Jeanneret, Jean Prouvé or Charlotte Perriand.
