Attributed to PIERRE GUARICHE (Paris, 1926-Bandol, France, 1995). Armchair, ca. 1960. Iron frame. Upholstered in white. In very good general condition. New upholstery and iron structure with a nice patina typical of the passage of time. Measurements: 85 x 70 x 85 cm; 40 cm (seat height). Upholstered armchair with armrests attributed to the iconic French architect and designer Pierre Guariche and produced in the sixties. The straight-lined frame and legs combine perfectly with the thick seat and back cushion, creating an elegant ensemble accentuated by the contrast between the black legs and the white upholstery. It is definitely a design with a markedly modern and timeless character. Pierre Guariche was a French designer, interior decorator and architect best known for the residential lamps he designed for Pierre Disderot in the 1950s, but he was also an innovative furniture designer and architect. He studied at the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs. He later joined the studio of another of his teachers, Marcel Gascoin. He began to exhibit his works at the Salon des Arts Ménagers and the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs, avant-garde places where the most prominent designers of the time showed their works. René-Jean Caillette, Joseph-André Motte, Jean Prouvé, Charlotte Perriand, Antoine Philippon and Jacqueline Lecoq were some of the designers who exhibited their experimental works in the salons of the time. After World War II, interest in the use of new methods and materials for the mass production of furniture increased. In 1951, Guariche began collaborating with Steiner, another important furniture manufacturer. He designed the innovative "Tonneau" chair, with a plastic and aluminum version in 1953 and a curved plywood version in 1954. At the same time, Guariche made numerous models for lighting manufacturer Pierre Disderot, seeking a modern, simple and economical alternative to the opulence of traditional French designs.
