About the Item
This striking pine lounge chair is clearly inspired by Pierre Chapo’s iconic Dromadaire model, yet its construction and proportions suggest a rare studio-made interpretation from the 1970s. With a sculptural frame crafted from solid pine, the chair showcases the artisanal joinery and architectural logic so closely associated with Chapo’s legacy, while diverging in material and detail in ways that underscore its likely independent origin.
The angular frame is built from rich, grainy pinewood, joined with exposed dowels and fitted with a sling-style seat and headrest in black leather and striped canvas. The rear support and X-frame base are particularly well executed, revealing a high level of craftsmanship and sensitivity to form. While Chapo's original Dromadaire models were executed in elm with slightly more compact dimensions, this piece stands slightly taller and broader—measuring 90 × 60 × 65 cm (H × W × D)—and opts for a lighter, rustic material palette.
Whether an early experimental version, a French workshop homage, or a thoughtful reinterpretation, this chair offers the Chapo enthusiast a compelling piece that bridges the line between inspired design and collectible originality.
Matching hexagonal pine table to accompany the chair available.
Attribution Note: While closely related to Pierre Chapo's Dromadaire chair, this piece is likely a high-quality studio production from the same era.
