Seller's Notes:A great copy of the famous Grand Confort chair originally designed by Le Corbusier in 1928. This is based on the 1959 prototype before Cassina began mass production in the 1960s. This is also the chair that appears in the PBS hit series "Sherlock" with Benedict Cumberbatch. From the Bauhaus 2 Your House website (where a new version costs $2,512 in premium leather): Faithful to the aspect of the original prototype of the Grand Model of Le Corbusier Grand Confort, the Grand Confort Soft underlines the contrast between the softness of the seat and the rigidity of the metal structure. Whereas the LC2 and LC3 Grand have firm and tailored cushions, the LC3 Soft will take on a less formal appearance of "broken-in luxe." The construction of the prototype certainly had handicraft characteristics, which only after 1959 could be adapted to the requirements of large-scale production. Mine is made in Italy in 1976. Brown leather cushions are in good used condition and extremely comfortable. The seat cushion is feather and down.
