Eileen Gray Barstool No. 1 and No. 2
So we all know the Eileen Gray Adjustable Table and probably most know the Bibendum Chair, but I must confess I was not familiar with Bar Stool 1 and 2 until just recently. Bar Stool No. 1 features a leather seat on a chromed steel adjustable column with a cast aluminum base. Pretty simple, but considering it was designed in 1927, pretty radical. Bar Stool No. 2, designed only a year later in 1928 is a totally modernist piece designed for a particular house but also used in Gray’s Paris apartment and her country home at her drawing desk. It also features a leather seat on a fixed base of painted steel and brushed stainless. @ Limn.
