Chest of drawers in solid teak. Quadrangular body containing an open compartment on the right, and three drawers on the left, the first on topped by two smaller ones with opening grips in the shape of hollowed-out circles on an aluminium background, typical of the work of Pierre Jeanneret in Chandigarh. Pair of “compass”-type high legs affixed to the sides of the body.
Pierre Jeanneret is one of the prolific designers and architects in the modern world. He approached design with an intellectual focus, bringing a more humanistic focus that would become a hallmark of modernist design.
