About the Item

A rare and evocative low lounge chair attributed to Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet. The piece bears many hallmarks of their distinctive style — sculptural simplicity, handcrafted detailing, and the use of natural, honest materials in service of accessible design. The frame is constructed from stained solid wood, with a rich patina and gentle wear that enhance its rustic character. The seat and backrest are handwoven in twisted rope, arranged in a bold, graphic pattern that conveys both texture and visual rhythm. Its low-slung silhouette and angled recline suggest a design meant for quiet repose — equally suited to contemplative interiors or poetic focal points. Audoux and Minet were known for their commitment to artisanal production and their collaboration with regional craftspeople. This chair reflects their ethos — a harmony of rustic tradition and modernist vision, celebrating material integrity and timeless design values
