Eileen Gray's Modern but Feminine Bibendum Chair

2019-05-30

The Eileen Gray Bibendum Chair, designed in 1929, is a fabulous modernistic chair whose design originates from the character created by Michelin to sell tyres. Since it burst back onto the fashion scene in the early 1970`s it has been a fashion icon in the world of furniture. Eileen Gray is a name closely tied to women`s dignified entrance into the male-dominated design world.

In 1926, at a time when primarily male designers and architects were authenticating their leading positions by introducing modern furniture pieces that later became influential icons, Eileen Gray gave us the curvaceous and inviting Bibendum chair. Curiously, Gray named it after a voluptuous male figure: the legendary Bibendum man.

The Eileen Gray Bibendum Chair can be upholstered in your choice of leather, enabling this brilliant design to perfectly accent your home. It is complemented by a stainless steel frame. The Eileen Gray Bibendum Chair makes a brilliant addition to any home, offering both recognized style and true comfort.
