This iconic pair of armchairs, manufactured by the East German NDK (Nationales Design Kollektiv) in the 1960s, represents a quintessential example of mid-century "string" or "cord" furniture design. These chairs are celebrated for their airy, sculptural silhouette, achieved through a meticulously woven cord technique stretched across a robust, minimalist wooden frame. This design philosophy highlights the era's focus on transparency, lightweight aesthetics, and functional innovation.
The chairs are in original condition, retaining the authentic tension and integrity of the woven cord seats. As indicated in the photos, the wooden armrests feature visible wear consistent with their age and history. These pieces have been well-preserved, showcasing a natural vintage character that celebrates their mid-century heritage. Their compact, open profile makes them exceptionally well-suited for a mid-century interior, a modern apartment, or a minimalist designer office where maximizing visual space is essential.
