Vintage F444 Steel and Canvas Armchair by Pierre Paulin for Artifort, 1980

Another design classic from Pierre Paulin. The metal frame actually forms the base of the entire chair, both under and upper part and continues fluently from bottom to top in 3 strong curves. The upholstery actually hangs in between the outer end of the frames. As well, the strong “lay back” design is noticeable in the design. The result is a minimalistic yet unique shape with a very comfortable sit. The F444 features either a leather upholstery or or a canvas upholstery. The latter one often in a see-through mesh structure. This canvas looks good and fits the chair perfectly as well as that its a very strong and durable material. For this specific chair, the mesh is grey coloured and matched with a white metal frame. The Artifort sticker is present on the frame, proving its authenticity. The sticker indicates a 1970s or 1980s production. The chair comes with a suitable topcover for more comfort. In good condition overall with only minor wear on frame and canvas visible.
