Product description
Kashima Lounge Chair by Michel Ducaroy for Ligne Roset, France, 1970s
Exceptional Soft Quilted Leather Lounge Chair in Cream Open Grain Leather
A refined and sculptural expression of Michel Ducaroy’s design language, the Kashima lounge chair captures the relaxed elegance of 1970s French modernism. Designed for Ligne Roset, it reflects Ducaroy’s exploration of low seating and organic volume, making it perfectly suited for interiors that balance soft minimalism with warmth and tactility.
This particular example was produced in 1980 and comes from the first owner, originally placed in a secondary residence in France. Its limited use over time is clearly visible in the preservation of both structure and upholstery, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a well kept early piece.
The defining element is the exceptional open grain leather in a warm cream tone. The leather is remarkably soft, almost velvety to the touch, enhancing the deep quilted construction that defines the Kashima. The rhythmic grid of padded squares creates a subtle landscape of volume and shadow, while the natural patina introduces gentle tonal variation that adds depth without disturbing its calm and clean presence.
Comfort is immediate and inviting. The all foam construction adapts effortlessly to the body, offering a relaxed yet supportive lounge experience. The condition remains excellent with only minimal signs of use and a beautifully preserved supple surface.
As a design, the Kashima belongs to the lineage of Ducaroy’s most iconic creations, sharing a conceptual connection with the Togo while presenting a more structured and architectural silhouette. Its compact yet generous form makes it ideal as a standalone collectible piece within curated interiors.
