Sculptural lounge chair by Boris Tabacoff for MMM, France, 1970s. The cantilevered design features a chromed steel base with a continuous curved footing that arcs beneath the seat like a crescent in tension. The molded shell seat retains its original cream leather upholstery—organic in form, almost biomorphic, with winged armrests and a relaxed recline. This is one of Tabacoff’s most recognizable silhouettes, marrying postwar experimentation with French sensuality. The balance between soft leather and exposed steel feels both space-age and grounded.
