Description
Xavier Pauchard (1880-1948) was a pioneer of galvanization in France. Shortly after World War 1, he was responsible for a flourishing manufacture of galvanized sheet-metal domestic items. In 1927 he registered the brand TOLIX and started manufacturing chairs, armchairs, stools and other metal furniture.
Pauchard designed the classic Tolix chair in 1934. Today we can see Tolix chairs in many famous museums like MoMA in New York and the Pompidou Centre in Paris. The Tolix chair has become a classic of our time.
