Originally designed in 1927 by Charlotte Perriand for her own Paris apartment, the LC7 Swivel Armchair was later exhibited at the 1929 Salon d’Automne as part of the co-signed collection with Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret. A masterpiece of modernism, this LC7 Swivel Armchair beautifully marries industrial innovation with organic comfort. With its signature circular seat, enveloping padded backrest, and smooth 360-degree rotation, the LC7 is a versatile icon that effortlessly transitions from an elegant dining chair to a sophisticated executive office seat. The built-in 360-degree swivel mechanism provides a dynamic sitting experience, offering effortless mobility without sacrificing stability. The structure features a brilliant, polished chrome-plated (or matte lacquered) steel frame, showcasing the clean lines and geometric purity characteristic of the Bauhaus and Modernist movements. The distinctive, barrel-like backrest and thick circular seat cushion are padded with high-resiliency polyurethane foam, offering surprising, ergonomic support. Available in a curated selection of top-grain Italian leathers, luxury synthetic leathers, or textured fabrics to suit both classic and contemporary interiors.
