Characterized by its minimalist form, the iconic LC1 Sling Chair is reduced to its most essential elements to create a functional yet avant garde sculpture of polished stainless steel tubing and leather. The classic chair was designed in the late 1920s by celebrated architects Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand, who reimagined the potential of industrial materials to create forward thinking objects for the modern home. Though strict in its minimalist form, the chair provides maximum comfort from sophisticated details such as the moveable backrest and steel springs behind the seat and backrest. The trio of designers labored over numerous prototypes, uncompromising in their commitment to revolutionize design. Produced exclusively by Cassina, the classic chair has been updated with precious hides from South America which have a very characteristic brindled pattern making each piece completely unique. The Pampas version of the LC1 Sling Chair is now available in a limited edition of 400 numbered pieces. A turning point in the history of modern design, the LC1 Sling Chair an important object that has been internationally celebrated for almost 90 years.
