Stamped ‘Fasem 83’
Very good condition for its age
Also known as Model B3 chairs — were designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925 while he was at the Bauhaus.
Fasem, an Italian manufacturer, produced later licensed versions.
When Fasem (Italy) produced Wassily chairs, particularly during the late 20th century, they maintained the overall modernist tubular steel frame but upgraded the materials for a more luxurious, contemporary market.
Polished stainless steel frame
High-quality saddle leather
Precision-machined and hand-finished stitching
Fasem was known for its superb leatherworking, so their Wassily editions are often prized for the exceptional leather quality, giving them a distinct edge over other licensed versions (like those by Knoll).
