AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Artwork - Mixed Media

The Toy chair was designed by Philippe Starck for Driade in 1999 with a one-piece polypropylene shell.

A chair deliberately abstract in its composition. Cut from a block, Toy speaks a language of sharp, wide planes that set it apart from other molded polypropylene chairs.

Young students and workers, both interested in design and the arts. Adèle and Tom, signing with their own first names, work with their hands to transform iconic armchairs and to produce a beautiful harmony between the painting and the strict lines of P. Starck's chair. The graphics and colors they use bring a decidedly contemporary and playful note to the whole.

Delivered in good condition.

This is an original chair, 'refurbished', painted and varnished (two-component, three coats), it can be used outdoors.

The piece is signed, sent with a certificate of authenticity. It will be carefully packaged and shipped with tracking 'track and trace'.
