French Art Deco Méredieme Chaise Lounge in Original Green Upholstery, 1930s

$5,600.00

A French Art Deco méridienne chaise lounge from the 1930s, distinguished by its asymmetry and low-profile form. Designed for repose, the silhouette features a raised headrest that gently descends into a lower footrest, unified by a continuous, sloping back, an arrangement that embodies the méridienne’s historic purpose as a piece for midday rest.

The profile is defined by soft, rounded volumes and subtly stepped sections, creating a rhythmic interplay of curves. Rooted in a tradition that originated in 18th-century France and flourished through the 19th and early 20th centuries, this méridienne exemplifies the Deco era’s refined approach to comfort and form.
