Muut tiedot

Designed for the Swedish pavilion at the Paris Exhibition in 1925. Cassina made a very limited edition in 1983. The present chair is according to family tradition the very first produced in this edition, and sent as a gift from Cassina to Hans Asplund, son of Gunnar Asplund. When Cassina premiered the new edition in Copenhagen, Hans was present. The chair then had a prominent place in Hans and his wife Anne Asplund's home at Grönegatan 32 in Lund, and when Hans passed away in 1994 it passed on to Bo Asplund.

The name derives from Asplund's title of his own proposal for the exhibition pavilion, "Vers la Seine" (Toward the Seine). The original from 1925 is now located within the permanent collection of the Nordic Museum in Stockholm (Inventory number 280237).
