After perfecting the art of galvanized steel in the 1920s, Xavier Pauchard trademarked his company Tolix. The company’s Marais A Chair has become a cafe seating standard in France and an icon of industrial aesthetics. Taken over by his sons in 1948, Tolix still creates Pauchard’s designs to his exacting standards today. Perfect durability, unmatched lightness and easy maintenance make the elegance of Tolix metal chairs valid today.
