François Monnet for Kappa steel mohair velvet armchairs 1970

Creator: François Monnet
Offered by: Maison Cedric

Description
This pair of stainless steel armchairs from the 1960s-1970s era was designed by François Monnet and manufactured by Kappa from 1970 to 1975, and it almost looks as though it hasn’t been touched since then. The round shapes with sharp assembly, combined with slick stainless steel and mohair velvet fabric is really a thing of beauty. They have been fully restored, repolished, and reupholstered with a teddy bear feeling mohair velvet fabric from Dedar.

Literature: La Maison Française, Juillet-Aout 1970, page 21 ; Meubles et Décors des Années 70, Bony, page 28.
