Superb rocking chair and ottoman in leather and mohair velvet by Jacques Adnet dating from the early 1950s. This set is characteristic of Adnet's work, soft saddle-stitched leather dit piqué sellier, and visible brass details and screws. The line is truly superb and very modern. The seat and backrest have been reupholstered in cream mohair velvet, adding softness and comfort to the set. Truly a rare, chic and decorative set, very comfortable, fully restored, that would lend itself well to many contemporary interiors. The ottoman size is width 20.85 inches x depth 14.55 inches x height 18.5 inches.

Jacques Adnet (1900–1984) was a French designer and interior architect known for his elegant, modernist style. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and from an early age was interested in Art Deco modernism, a movement that rejected the excessive ornamentation of Art Nouveau and advocated simple, functional lines. In the 1920s, he founded a company with his twin brother, Jean Adnet, where they created furniture using simple geometric shapes and high-quality materials. In 1928, he was appointed director of the Compagnie des Arts Français (CAF), and helped the institution adopt a contemporary approach. His designs combined industrial materials, such as glass and metal, with simple, clean lines. In the 1950s, by collaborating with the luxury house Hermès, he reaffirmed his status as a pioneer of refined 20th-century French design.
