CHANDIGARH: In another failure of the UT administration to protect the city's heritage, 16 items designed by architects Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier will go under the hammer in Paris on June 14.
These include a low double-sided storage cabinet; a removal single bed; a low chair; a storage unit; a sofa and two armchairs; a set of four armchairs; a pair of sheet metal walls; a desk, a set of four armchairs; a bookcase, a large desk; a set of 12 armchairs, a large dining table; a chest of drawers and a set of two stools. The ASI had refused to act in sale of city's heritage furniture by foreign auction houses stating the items do not come under category of 'antiquity' and 'art treasure'.
