From the so-called "Wood-metal" period, considered as one of the most accomplished of Pierre Chareau's modern production, the T Stool, or SN3, stands as an emblematic creation by the French designer, realised in collaboration with ironworker Louis Dalbet. The piece was featured in numerous projects, including the Grand Hôtel de Tours (1928) and the iconic Maison de Verre (1928-1931).

Ecart
Founded in Paris in 1978 by Andrée Putman, Ecart International was among the first companies dedicated to rediscovering and reissuing the work of overlooked pioneers of early twentieth-century modern design. Through meticulous research and a distinctive curatorial vision, the brand brought iconic creations by designers such as Pierre Chareau, Jean-Michel Frank, Eileen Gray, and Robert Mallet-Stevens back into production, playing a key role in their international revival. Alongside its historic reissues, Ecart International developed collaborations with contemporary designers and its own creative studio, establishing a lasting reputation for timeless modernity, refined craftsmanship, and understated elegance.
Pierre Chareau

Pierre Chareau (1883–1950) was a pioneering French designer, architect, and interior decorator whose work helped define modern design between the 1920s and 1930s. Renowned for his innovative use of wood, metal, and glass, Chareau created furniture and interiors distinguished by their sculptural simplicity, technical ingenuity, and refined functionality. A co-founder of the Union des Artistes Modernes (U.A.M.), he collaborated with leading artists and craftsmen of his era while developing a unique design language that balanced elegance, experimentation, and practicality. His masterpiece, the iconic Maison de Verre (Glass House) in Paris, remains one of the most influential works of modern architecture. Today, Chareau’s furniture is celebrated for its timeless modernity, exceptional craftsmanship, and enduring influence on contemporary design.
