Originally designed by Pierre Paulin in collaboration with Artifort in the 50s, the Orange Slice chair was not manufactured until 1960, and has since gone on to become a design icon.
The unique design was conceived after Paulin began using the technique of folding plywood, allowing him to create the curved silhouette.
The backrest and seat are constructed from two individual curves of plywood upholstered in vibrant purple fabric, creating the effect of orange slices sitting on a polished chrome frame with splayed legs.
A fantastic example of the futuristic 1960s design aesthetic, this Orange Slice armchair would make the perfect addition to any contemporary living space.
