'Verre Securit' Glass Chair by Michel Blondeau for Saint Gobain, France 1958
One darker green available.
Presenting a rare and exceptional 'Verre Securit' chair, designed by Michel Blondeau for Saint-Gobain, France in 1958. This chair stands out for its innovative use of materials and unique, architectural design. The architectural metal base provides a striking contrast to the elegant, almost feminine, curves of the glass seat. Each chair is a sculpture in its own right.
This chairs can be used with a cushion, which we have custom fabricated in a pale blue faux snakeskin fabric, or it can be used without. Either choice maintains its design integrity. Its sculptural design is not just avant-garde - this chair is also practical for everyday use, thanks to the remarkable strength of the safety glass, which surpasses the strength of wood. Each chair is marked with 'Glace Securit,' and shows the original glass blowing marks formed during the hardening process. France, 1958.
