Pierre Chapo, S15 armchair in solid elm and brown leather.

◼ THE HISTORY & DESIGN S15 armchair by Pierre Chapo, model designed in 1966. Low seat, compact volume, fully visible structure: nothing about the construction is hidden, and that’s what holds the design together. The frame and legs are made from solid elm, with softened edges. The crosspieces are assembled with through tenons, with the keys remaining visible on the sides and back: the assembly serves as decoration. The wood has a warm and uniform patina, with the grain of the elm clearly visible. The backrest and seat rest on a natural cognac leather strapping, stitched and riveted to the frame, which alone provides the suspension. On top, two brown leather cushions tufted with a central button. The contrast of the two leathers is a signature of the model. A reading armchair: seat height at 30 cm from the ground, controlled footprint. It can stand alone in a corner or face a low sofa. ◼ SPECIFICATIONS Designer: Pierre Chapo Model: S15, armchair Model creation: 1966 (manufacturing date of the documented piece not available) Materials: solid elm, brown leather (cushions), natural cognac leather (strapping) Dimensions: L 72 × D 75 × H 72 cm, seat height 30 cm Markings: no stamp or marking noted.
