Le Corbusier LC4 Chairs

Le Corbusier (1887-1965) was born Charles-Edouard Jeanneret-Gris in Switzerland and moved to Paris in 1917.  Widely regarded as the most important architect of the 20th century, he was also a gifted painter, writer, urban planner and designer.  One of his most iconic designs is the LC4 Chaise Longue.  Designed in 1928, the chair was called the "relaxing machine" as it mirrors the body's curves and has an infinite amount of sitting angles.  The frame is movable and adjusts from upright to full recline.  Examples of the LC4 chaise longue can be found in the permanent collections of many museums including the MoMA in NYC.  This pair of chairs, in their original black leather, was manufactured by Cassina and each chair is signed and numbered.  Cassina has the exclusive worldwide license from the Le Corbusier Foundation to produce the LC4.  The chairs come with the original documentation from Cassina.  63" l., 22 1/2" w., 33" h.  Italian, 20th c.   SOLD

Russel Wright for Conant Ball, Tall Chest

Russel Wright (1904-1976) was an American Industrial designer who revolutionized the way people lived.  He believed design starts with the dinner table, which is the center of the home, and then should work outward to furnishings, interiors, architecture and landscaping.  Wright, throughout his long and very successful career, designed everything from table ware and appliances to textiles and furniture.  He worked with great manufacturers like Steubenville Pottery and Conant Ball Furniture to produce his designs.   He and his wife Mary, with whom  he partnered professionally, wrote several books on "living" including "Guide to Easier Living" in which they wrote "Good informal living substitutes a little head work for a lot of legwork. It doesn't need wealth, but it does take thought, some ingenuity and resourcefulness, and more than a little loving care to create a home that is really your own."  They are widely credited with inventing lifestyle marketing.
