C-Chair Dining Chair French Cane

The C-Chair Dining Chair was designed in 1947 by Marcel Gascones. The chair represents not only the esthetic and practical power of Gascones design but also the social conscience that he strongly demonstrated in post-war France. The C-Chair was created out of a desire to fit into the new size of homes being built at the end of World War II, when Gascones compensated for the lack of space by creating simple, functional furniture. Characterized by powerful legs, along with an inviting seat in lighter materials like cane and straw, the C-Chair reveals quality through modern lines, sobriety, and high-quality wood. Smartly designed with great attention to detail, the chair has an elegant shape yet robust construction with a simple, minimal, and strong design.
