Designed in 1973 by the celebrated Parisian duo Yonel Lebovici and Bernard Berthet for the luxury furnishings house Marais International, these chairs have lost none of their extraordinary visual impact in the half-century since they were created.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe conceit is as brilliant as it is simple: a traditional French bistro chair — one of the most familiar and beloved silhouettes in the history of seating — reinterpreted in transparent Lucite (acrylic) and polished brass, creating a chair that is simultaneously present and absent, heavy in the hand yet visually weightless, classical in form yet utterly of its moment. The Hollywood Regency glamour of the brass fittings against the crystal clarity of the Lucite produces a visual effect that never fails to elicit admiration and comment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffered as a pair — as found — these chairs are in excellent condition for their age and represent an exceptional opportunity to acquire a genuine example of one of the most admired French design classics of the 1970s. Suitable for any interior brave enough to showcase them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Works","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58169964691837,"sku":null,"price":307.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/6989\/9133\/files\/Pairof_LesInvisibles_Lucite_BrassFoldingChairsbyYonelLebovici_BernardBerthetforMaraisInternational_1970s.heic?v=1778783084","url":"https:\/\/antiqueworksireland.ie\/products\/les-invisibles-lucite-brass-folding-chairs-lebovici-1970s-pair","provider":"Antique Works Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
