The aesthetic of the Canelle Lounge speaks the language of simplicity and gracefulness, making Canelle a chair destined to be the focal point of any modern space. Its design accentuates an elongated slender back and gently sloping arms, evoking a visually intriguing silhouette with beautifully tapered lines.
Intricate saddle stitching on the interior and exterior of the shell, paired with topstitching around the perimeter provide strikingly crafted details. An optional sewn-in pillow with topstitch detail offers a supportive headrest. Canelle is offered with two base options: a sculptured cast-aluminum base with a self-returning swivel or a tailored wooden cross stretcher base.
The Canelle Chair was designed by the multidisciplinary French designer, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, known internationally for his sensitive attention to materials and details, as well as for the refinement of his organic forms. From his initial training as a sculptor, he has kept this innate aptitude for dialogue between space and object. Bernhardt Design’s ongoing partnership with Noé spans over a decade and has resulted in many of our most well-known pieces.
