The Chandigarh Chair is a timeless design classic inspired by the historic furniture created for the city of Chandigarh during the early years of independent India. Originally associated with the work of Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier and his cousin Pierre Jeanneret, this iconic chair reflects the modern architectural vision developed by a team of architects for the newly planned city.
At Afday, our Chandigarh Chair is handcrafted from solid teakwood and features the instantly recognizable V-shaped leg structure and woven rattan seat. The clean geometry and natural materials make this chair a perfect blend of durability and mid-century design.
The original chair designed by Pierre Jeanneret was created to furnish public buildings in Chandigarh and has since become one of the most collectible pieces of Chandigarh furniture. Vintage versions are now sought after by collectors and have appeared in major auction houses and museums such as the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Our modern interpretation preserves the character of the original design while ensuring everyday comfort and durability. The solid teakwood frame provides strength, while the handwoven cane seat adds warmth and texture.
Whether placed in a dining area, workspace, or living space, the Chandigarh Chair brings a refined architectural presence to modern interiors.
