Stool by Henry Jacques Le Même, France, circa 1949

Solid wood stool designed by architect Henry Jacques Le Même for a chalet in Megève around 1950. Its geometric silhouette, with a pyramidal base and circular seat, exemplifies Le Même's architectural approach to furniture, based on structure, balance, and ease of use. The seat is upholstered in Othello red velvet from Nobilis, adding a warm and refined touch to the rigorous design. This stool is part of Le Même's collection of mountain furniture, where functionality meets modernist aesthetics. Provenance: Le Grand Soleil building, completed in 1939 in Megève.
