Eileen Gray designs this chair inspired by the famous "little man Michelin" of the inflated tires "Bibendum", which remains the Michelin brand. Gray often joked that this was his response as a feminist to Le Corbusier's Grand Confort. The base of the chair is in glossy chromed tubular steel. The seat, the backrest and the armrests are completely covered in eco-leather or leather of various colors.
