PIERRE JEANNERET
'Kangaroo' chair, ca. 1960
Teak, cane. Produced in France / India for Punjab University, Chandigarh, India.
Back painted with "I.D.D.C./WS-162".

Condition

Very good overall restored condition. As is common with items from Chandigarh, wood surfaces have been cleaned and stabilized, preserving older wear, small areas of filler, minor chips and stabilized seam separations in keeping with other examples. The finish on this chair is glossier than other examples we've seen.
