Poêle Chair

Poêle Chair by Alessi is part of a collection by Philippe Starck that started out as a joke and turned into a series of classy furnishings with a futuristic appeal and an extraordinary power to enhance design and materials.Poêle Chair, and the entire collection, takes its name from the French word for 'frying pan' precisely because it was born after a playful sketch by Starck depicting a frying pan with legs, after Alberto Alessi's repeated requests for a chair they could make together. The result is a unique chair with an 18/10 steel shell that elegantly embodies the best expressions of human intelligence: humour and technology. The contrast between the organic component of the base, which breaks with the polished finish of the metal, creates a composition of undoubted effect and considerable stage presence.One-piece chair in polished 18/10 stainless steel. Brown stained beechwood frame.
