Mathieu Matégot

Mathieu Matégot (1910-2001) was a Hungarian-born designer who settled in France. After the Second World War he developed furniture and objects in perforated and folded sheet metal, a technique he called Rigitulle, producing chairs, tables, trolleys and baskets in his workshops. Pieces such as the Nagasaki chair and Satellite mirror are well known. He later devoted himself to tapestry. Collectors seek original lacquered pieces in good condition.
