Metalworker Xavier Pauchard not only brought the art of galvanizing steel to France, but
took the process to the next level by creating the Marais A Chair (1934), the quintessential
cafe chair that was both elegant and robust enough to grace the decks of the S.S.
Normandie ocean liner. It takes 100 manual operations to create an A Chair - no two
are entirely the same - and the X-shaped reinforcement bar beneath the seat enables
each chair to bear the designer's initial. "Xavier Pauchard's Chaise A is a perfect synthesis
created by a man possessed of an understanding of raw materials - and the tools used
to work them," said Serge Lemoine, former director of Musee d'Orsay, Paris. All Tolix metal
furniture is still made in Autun, the same Burgundy town where it all began. Slight surface
abrasions and markings are characteristic of the material and part of its hardworking
machine aesthetic. Rubber feet prevent damage to floors. The Marais Collection will
stand up to the rigors of public use, but should be protected from wet weather
conditions to maintain the finish. Stackable up to 10 high. Made in France.

As its name suggests, this masculine collection is suitable for those with an active lifestyle.
Taking the average “picnic” style set-up to new heights, it is made up of a table (VGR 320)
and a matching bench (VGR 314) or stools (VGR 50). Each piece features a powder
coated aluminum frame and rough-hewn, high-quality teak or mahagony top. While
it exudes authenticity, it is undeniably -high-design. Furthermore, it is constructed with
time-honored techniques, such as the use of dovetail joints to lock in the massive wood
parts to the aluminum structure—a hallmark of fine wood craftsmanship with a
modern twist. available at:
