Originally created for a wealthy milliner's apartment on the Rue de Lota in Paris, this chair famously bridges the gap between rigid early functionalism and playful, organic luxury. The Bibendum Armchair’s unique name and striking silhouette are a direct nod to Bibendum, the plump, tiered mascot of the Michelin tire company. While many of Gray’s contemporaries (like Le Corbusier or Mies van der Rohe) were focused on austere, strictly geometric tubular steel furniture, Gray injected wit and plush comfort into the movement. She designed the Bibendum to be \"captivatingly round,\" offering an embrace that standard modernist block seating simply couldn't match.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Italy\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eUsually ships within 4 weeks\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFree shipping\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eADDITIONAL INFORMATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Height 75 cm (29.5\")\u003cbr\u003e- Width 100 cm (39.4\")\u003cbr\u003e- Depth 81 cm (32”)\u003cbr\u003e- SeatH 45 cm (17.7”)\u003cbr\u003e- Weight 12 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Leather\u003cbr\u003e- Polished chrome tubular steel base\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Information: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Living room\u003cbr\u003e- Hotel room\u003cbr\u003e- Indoor use\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eThe legacy of the Bauhaus is truly remarkable, isn't it?
