Charlotte Perriand
Cassina LC4 CP Chaise longue
160 x 56.4 cm.
Leather, Steel
Cassina LC4 CP & Louis Vitton is a Chaise Longue with adjustable polished chrome plated steel frame. Base in basalt color. Headrest with polyester padding. The innovative self supporting mattress, covered in exclusive Louis Vuitton leather, is attached to the chrome frame by means of springs and has seamless edges with valuable and contrasting stitching.
Cassina shares its passion with Louis Vuitton for Charlotte Perriand and launches a limited edition (1000 pieces) of the LC4 .
The inspiration of this innovative tribute piece dates back to the photo of Charlotte Perriand relaxing on one of the first models of the chaise-longue with a self-supporting mattress attached directly to the frame. The mattress – in natural, untreated Louis Vuitton saddle leather – has seamless edges with valuable and contrasting stitching.
Autenthicity of Cassina LC4 CP & Louis Vitton Chaise Longue
In 1922, Le Corbusier began working in the new rue de Sèvres, Paris, atelier with his cousin Pierre Jeanneret with whom he shared research projects and design criteria in a profound and life-long professional relationship.
In October 1927, the pair decided to draw on the contribution of a young architect who had already begun to establish a reputation on the architectural scene of the time: Charlotte Perriand. Their collaboration lasted through to 1937 and was extremely fruitful, especially in the field of furniture design. The partnership was highly significant, both in terms of the cultural weight of their achievements and their professional successes. It was together with Charlotte Perriand that the pair tackled the innovative project for “l’équipement d'intérieur de l’habitation”. The resulting designs were of great intellectual value and considerable commercial success.
Thanks to Cassina’s ongoing production, there is continued interest in the conceptual contents of the work and the level of quality attained. Due to these characteristics, each item in the collection is eagerly awaited. http://www.fondationlecorbusier.fr/
