Conceived during a period of radical change in architecture and interiors, the LC4 embodied the modernist ideal of combining form, function, and comfort into a single elegant object.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis particular LC4 Chaise Longue is a high-quality replica and is presented in very good vintage condition. The chrome frame (in excellent condition) has been carefully cleaned, while the PU leather* upholstered seat and headrest remain in very good vintage and used order, just as it should be. All four original foot pads are intact.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe genius of the LC4 lies in its simplicity.

Equally at home in contemporary, modernist, or eclectic interiors, it remains a design icon that bridges functionality, craftsmanship, and timeless style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLe Corbusier (1887–1965), born Charles Édouard Jeanneret, was a Swiss-French architect, designer, and one of the leading figures of modern architecture.

Light traces of restoration may remain visible, consistent with authentic vintage furniture\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e In some cases, minor adjustments may also have been made during the restoration process to ensure the piece remains functional and usable.
