DESCRIPTION
PASCAL MOURGUE (France, 1943) for Scarabat.
4 chairs Model "Ola", ca. 1980.
Teak wood. Upholstered seat.
Model difficult to find.
Measurements: 76 x 48 x 40 cm; 45 seat height.
The "Ola" chair by Pascal Mourgue is a piece of post-modern design that combines a sturdy structure and a play of geometric and refined forms. The legs, trapezoidal in section, are wider at the top and taper towards the base, creating a visual effect of stability and lightness at the same time. The circular seat integrates harmoniously with the enveloping backrest, which curves subtly to embrace the back.
Pascal Mourgue studied sculpture at the École Boulle, and later graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. He began designing furniture in 1962, always placing artistic integrity above commercial success. This love of art has led him to work in fields as diverse as sailboat design for Cartier, ornamental glass objects for Baccarat, architecture, painting and sculpture. It was not until the 1980s that he finally focused his career on home furnishings.
