Jean Pauchard

Born in 1913, Jean is the grandson of Xavier Pauchard, the founder of Tolix. At the death of his father in 1948, he became the company CEO and created new pieces of furniture that were still rooted in the family history of design, like Table 55 and Armchair A56. At the end of the 1950s, Jean Pauchard incorporated trendy materials in his tubular steel structures like woven plastic yarn and moulded plastic, typical of the time.
