LC/2 n 013 Fauteuil grand confort petite modèle year of production?  

Dear Sirs,

Thank you for my approval on this forum! 

 I’m an Italian owner of an old LC/2  Fauteuil grand confort petite modèle.

Due to the very low serial number (013) I would like  to piece together the story of this armchair. I made a quick research of the initial part of LC furniture production but I hope to receive an additional help from You for my research. 

At first look seems to be an early Cassina production but I have some doubts about the year of production, in other terms I don’t understand if the sequential number of series started since the Heidi Weber production (in this case could be one of the first 25 lc2 shown for the first time in Zurich to Le Corbusier in person in order to approve them), or started simply from Cassina (maybe still under supervision of Heidi Weber). I would also like to better understand the estimated value because I’d like to proceed with a conservative restoration (if this will not destroy the value of it)  and maybe after that I’ll decide to sell it.   

Thank You in advance for your opinion.

 

Kind Regards
