Rare limited Elephant Chair by Bernard Rancillac that attracts attention due to its unique, abstract shape, which has a very idiosyncratic character.
The Elephant Chair was originally designed in 1966 and exhibited at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1968. In 1985 a limited edition of 100 pieces was released.
This concerns number 73/100.
As the name of the chair suggests, the chair is inspired by an elephant, the shell of the chair is made of fiberglass and is supported by a metal frame that resembles a horseshoe.
The Elephant Chair was designed by the French artist Bernard Rancillac. He is one of the most influential artists of the pop-up art movement. Ranillac was fascinated by the human body and technology, and these two elements come together in the elephant chair.
It is a piece that is both functional and decorative. The innovative design makes it a work of art that is a real eye-catcher in a home.
Bernard Rancillac passed away on December 29, 2021.
