ABOUT PRODUCTID 34332
The Orange Slice lounge chair, designed by Pierre Paulin for Artifort and produced in France during the 1980s, stands as an emblem of mid-century modern design. Its construction is defined by two elegantly curved, petal-like shells forming the seat and backrest, creating a cohesive, sculptural silhouette that invites relaxation. The cool, light grey synthetic fabric upholstery boasts a matte, subtly textured finish, gently reflecting light and highlighting the chair’s soft, organic form. Three slender, splayed chrome legs with polished, round feet support the low, wide body, adding both stability and a touch of reflective brightness. The seamless transitions between the seat shells and the metal frame attest to precise craftsmanship, while the overall minimalism exemplifies the era’s innovative approach to materials and form. The chair has been preserved in very good vintage condition, showing only minor age-related traces, with no significant damage. In the Orange Slice, one hears the voice of the 1960s and 70s, when French modernism embraced a new vision of comfort. The shape evokes the gesture of a peeled orange segment—an invitation to pause, a relaxed dialogue between object and user. The matte fabric cools the senses, chrome legs mirror the surrounding space, and the sculptural line suggests both lightness and a readiness for shifting perspectives. This chair tells the story of a period when design was meant to be close to the human experience—organic, gentle, and quietly expressive. The Orange Slice can be paired with a low, dark wood coffee table or a minimalist floor lamp to emphasize its sculptural presence. It would suit open-plan living spaces styled in mid-century modern spirit, but would also work well in eclectic, collector’s interiors where contrast and materials
