Tanis

After his initial success at the Salon des Arts Ménagers de Paris in 1953, Pierre Paulin began collaborating with Thonet-France the following year, principally designing desks and chairs. It was then that he designed the ‘CM 141’ desk, which was re-issued by Ligne Roset in 2008 under the name Tanis: its original design was scrupulously respected, but the ‘self-effacing’ finishes of the era have been updated and enriched.
