Pierre Jeanneret, very rare cane and teakwood Pair of Armchairs from Private Residence in Chandigarh, India. Rare original lettering on the back of each Armchairs. Teak, woven cane and upholstered seat cushion featuring cloth covering. See photo before restoration when I bought them in Chandigarh (we are one of the few to propose these photos).
These Armchairs are completely original except the caning (all these chairs have been re-caned five or six times during their 60 years life). Very nice patina.
