KANGAROO CHAIR
Teak armchair without armrests
The KANGAROO CHAIR is a low armchair comprising two parallel flowing Z shaped assemblies that form the leg and back frame. The back of the armchair is gently bowed to provide seating comfort. This re-edition of the KANGAROO CHAIR is true to the proportions and dimensions of the chairs made for Chandigarh, but reinforced with stronger joineries. The natural rattan cane is peeled and woven meticulously by hand.
Wood finish: Natural Teak / Dark Stain / Z4 Walnut
Weave type: Diamond Weave / Cross Weave
Project Chandigarh is our homage to Indian Modernism, a style and philosophy of making that manifested in Chandigarh in the 1950s. Our re-editions's of these mid-century designs use the same craftsmanship and philosophy of making that was used for three decades in Chandigarh. The nuances and details that make these designs special – finger joints, curvatures, grooves – are retained while improving the pieces structurally and materially. The natural rattan cane used for the seats and backs are peeled and woven by hand, by highly skilled weavers just like in the vintage pieces.
