CHAIR
NO.14 REEDITION 214 RED WITH PRETZEL KNOTS
MICHAEL THONET
 

1859

The famous coffee house chair is an icon and is still considered one of the most successful industrial products in the world: the history of modern furniture began with it. The basis was a new technique, the bending of solid wood, which Michael Thonet perfected in the 1850s and thus made series production possible for the first time . There was also an ingenious sales idea: 36 dismantled chairs were packed into a box measuring one cubic meter, sent all over the world and assembled on site. With its clear, reduced aesthetics , this classic chair has found its place in a wide variety of environments for over 150 years.
