The piece of furniture shown here is the iconic LC2 armchair, designed in 1928 by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand.
This model is made by the Italian manufacturer Cassina, which has held the official production license for the LC collection since 1965. The armchair is one of the most famous modernist designs and is characterized by its clear, rational design, in which a polished, chrome-plated tubular steel frame surrounds the separate, lavishly upholstered cushions.
The cushions are loose and filled with polyurethane and polyester wadding, covered in black leather. The frame is designed as an open frame construction that completely encloses the seat and backrest area and emphasizes the geometric rigour of the design. The straps on which the seat cushions rest have been replaced with new ones, otherwise this armchair is in absolutely original condition. The available documents and the serial number 34088 prove its authenticity as a Cassina original.
he armchair is in very good, well-kept condition with only minimal traces of age and use. The leather is soft, evenly patinated and free of any relevant damage. The chrome frame has a clean sheen with no significant scratches or signs of corrosion. The upholstery is dimensionally stable and comfortable, making the piece appear almost as good as new, both visually and functionally.
