Jean PROUVÉ (1901-1984)

All wood Chair Thermoformed plywood and oak frame. Stoel Thermogevormd multiplex en eiken frame. Years 1940. H.84 cm L.41 cm P.47 cm The Chaise Tout Bois is the only chair of the French manufacturer and designer Jean Prouvé entirely made of wood. In form, it is very similar to Prouvé's famous Standard chair, but the metal base was replaced by wood due to the scarcity of metal during World War II. Prouvé created several prototypes of this chair in order to test the strength of its structure as well as the joints, the position of the legs and the connection between the seat and the back.
