Charlotte perriand tokyo chaise longue bamboo for cassina a piece of design history that conveys cassina’s exceptionally fine wood craftsmanship. A chaise longue with a sinuous, welcoming, organic shape, originally made from bamboo. An innovative project from 1940, put into production in 2011, crafted by charlotte perriand during her stay in japan as a re-imagining of the 4 chaise longue à reglage continu based on her concept of the marriage between human rationalism and nature. Available in bamboo and teak, the chaise top is made up of 12 curved slats and a wood lath cradle, joined by fasteners in satin-finish brass. Top curved strips. Junction elements satin brass. It is through this veritable piece of design history that cassina expresses its exceptional wood-working mastery. Designed, but not realised, in 1940, by charlotte perriand during her time in tokyo, this chair uses bamboo to revisit the famous 4 chaise-longue à reglage continu. Its organic form, curvy and inviting, has been re-issued and is now available in teak, and well as bamboo wood. The seat of this recliner is made of twelve curved strips of wood while the joining elements are satin-finish brass studs. Adding mattresses for outdoor use provides dashes of colour to help furnish a veranda, terrace, or any other kind of outdoor space. this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
