    The Crocodile Chair and Stool are the first products to come out of PH + , a platform within Phantom Hands for experimental collaborations with designers and artists.

    Felix Pfäffli, a Swiss Graphic Designer known for his bold forms, curvilinear lines, bolts of colours and unusual geometries, interprets the classic Chandigarh Easy Armchair attributed to Pierre Jeanneret 'as a graphic designer would'.

    A zig-zag pattern runs through the side of the back, armrests and legs of the chair creating distinctive edges that conjure images of bunting flags, a staircase or….. crocodile teeth. Closer inspection will reveal that there are no sharp edges, just gently-rounded curves. The elements that form the zig-zag pattern are joined together in a manner that completely reveals the details of the joinery, rather than hiding it.

    The chair comes in a selection of two wood finishes and four fabric colour pairings for each of the wood finishes, all carefully composed by Felix. The upholstery colours are custom-developed by our fabric collaborator Zanav, through the traditional process of vat dyeing handspun yarn

    Why we love Phantom Hands

    Phantom Hands represents a thoughtful continuation of modern design history. The studio works closely with the legacy of mid century modernism in India, producing pieces that honor original designs while sustaining the craft traditions that made them possible. There is an honesty to the materials and construction that aligns deeply with our values. Each piece carries a sense of cultural memory while remaining relevant to contemporary living. Phantom Hands reminds us that good design is not only about form but also about lineage, care, and stewardship.
