Contemporary re-edition of the iconic Armless Box Chair, originally designed by Pierre Jeanneret for the city of Chandigarh, India, in the mid-20th century. This model faithfully follows the proportions, structure, and spirit of the original design created for the Punjab University Library.
The chair is crafted from solid teak wood, combined with a hand-woven natural cane seat, respecting the materials and construction logic of the historical model. Its architectural silhouette, clean geometry, and functional clarity reflect the modernist ideals that defined Jeanneret’s work.
The structure is robust and balanced, with a slightly inclined backrest and a compact footprint that makes it suitable for both residential and professional interiors. The natural finish highlights the grain of the wood, while the cane adds lightness and tactile contrast.
This piece is not an original Chandigarh-period chair, but a high-quality contemporary reproduction, produced with respect for the original design and intended for everyday use. It offers the aesthetic and functional value of the classic model without the fragility or cost of an original vintage piece.
Ideal for interiors seeking timeless modernism, architectural coherence, and honest materials.
