Description
Tolix's A Chair has been an industrial design icon for nearly a century, becoming a classic, etched in our collective memory, untouched by the vagaries of fashion over the years. Thanks to its enduring popularity, dating back to 1934, it is now part of the collections at the Vitra Design Museum, MoMa and the Pompidou Centre... It's the ultimate accolade and a form of international recognition for this "living heritage" which exemplifies the French way of life. The A chair, which embodies the modern style of the 1930s-1950s, is characterized by its robustness and low weight. It is stackable and so addresses concerns about space-saving. Its practical design and streamlined aesthetic has been fundamental to its success: in 1935, the Tolix armchair was used to furnish the Normandie ocean liner and in 1937 it was chosen for the Paris Universal Exhibition. It adorned a large number of café terraces before being used in domestic settings from the 1950s onwards. Its designer, Xavier Pauchard, used stamped sheet metal and zinc for the first time to manufacture mass-produced furniture. And so the Tolix chair became the first French industrial chair. Today, the company has high-performing, digital machines which it uses alongside its many manual operations and traditional tools. So every chair that leaves the factory is unique and bears the Tolix signature stamped on the metal. It was only fitting, therefore, that TOLIX was awarded the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant” label in 2006 by the Ministry of Economy, Finances and Industry.
