Description
Philippe Starck Ed Archer Pair of chairs Aluminium and leather H98 W47 D55 HA45 cm Slight discolouration and scratches on the leather Designed in the mid-1980s, at a time when Philippe Starck was establishing himself as a leading figure in French design on the international stage, the Ed Archer chair combines a leather-upholstered seat and backrest with an angular metal frame. This contrast between the suppleness of the leather and the tension of the metal gives the design a sculptural, almost anthropomorphic silhouette, characteristic of Starck’s style at that time. This pair belongs to the second version of the design, which lacks the lacing on the back. The red leather accentuates its graphic and theatrical quality.
