Alessi | Furniture Poêle Chair With Armrests

Description

Poêle Chair with Armrests by Alessi is part of a collection by Philippe Starck that started out as a joke and turned into a series of classy furnishings with futuristic appeal and the extraordinary power of enhancing design and materials.Poêle Chair with Armrests, and the entire collection, takes its name from the French word ‘frying pan’ precisely because it was born after a playful sketch by Starck depicting a frying pan with legs, after Alberto Alessi’s repeated requests for a chair they could make together. The result is a unique chair with an 18/10 steel shell that elegantly embodies the best expressions of human intelligence: humour and technology. The two comfortable armrests are intended to imitate the handles of a saucepan, but at the same time give finesse and grace to the composition, which is enriched with an organic component that breaks with the polished finish of the metal.One-piece chair in polished 18/10 stainless steel. Brown stained beechwood frame and armrests.
