Designed by Charlotte Perriand in 1969 and reintroduced by Cassina in 2021, the Paravent Ambassade is a striking example of Perriand’s ability to merge architecture, craftsmanship, and movement. More than a simple room divider, the screen functions as a sculptural element—one that shapes space while remaining light and permeable.
Crafted from solid American walnut, the screen is composed of 313 individually articulated wooden blocks, connected to create a flexible surface that gently shifts with use. The repetition of the blocks creates a rhythmic pattern, allowing light and air to pass through while maintaining a sense of separation. The warmth of the walnut softens the geometry, giving the piece a tactile, human quality.
Measuring 87.1" wide × 1.1" deep × 65.9" high, the Paravent Ambassade can be used to divide a room, define a corner, or stand alone as a sculptural statement. Its modular construction allows it to adapt to different spaces, changing subtly as it moves.
Produced as a numbered and signed edition, this reintroduction honors Perriand’s original vision while bringing exceptional craftsmanship to a contemporary context. Thoughtful, expressive, and quietly architectural, the Paravent Ambassade is a rare piece that transforms both space and light with understated elegance.
