The one and only A56 Armchair by TOLIX: the Original, the icon of French design. Repeatedly copied, the A56 Armchair by Tolix is one of the great classics of 20th-century furniture. Jean Pauchard launched the A56 Armchair in 1956. It follows the same basic principles as his father's famous A Chair. More than half a century later, the A56 remains one of the most emblematic armchairs in the world of design. It has stood the test of time and style to become a classic in the collective memory.
Its rock-solid solidity and refined aesthetic have given it a prestigious and successful career. It was first seen on many a Coffee terrace, then in private homes.
Its designer, Xavier Pauchard, used pressed sheet metal and zinc for the first time in mass-produced furniture. The Tolix chair thus became the first French industrial chair. For almost a century, every A56 Armchair that leaves the TOLIX workshops has been handcrafted by craftsmen who have passed on to each other their traditional skills in stamping, bending, brazing and polishing. Each armchair that leaves the workshops is therefore unique, and bears the Tolix signature stamped into the metal. In 2006, Tolix was awarded the "Living Heritage Company" label by the French Ministry of the Economy, Finance and Industry.
Stackable, this armchair is the perfect answer to the need for rational use of space.
