About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
Complete set of six (6) original bentwood bistro chairs from the renowned Finnish manufacturer Wilhelm Schauman (Fanerfabrik from Jyväskylä). This iconic model is strongly inspired by the classic Thonet No. 14 chair and exudes pure vintage elegance.
Features & Authenticity:
Manufacturer: Oy W. Schauman Ab (Jyväskylä, Finland)
Quantity: Complete set of 6 pieces (rare in this edition)
Authenticity: All chairs feature the original, clear factory brand stamp on the underside.
Seat: The plywood seats are in excellent condition and feature the characteristic and razor-sharp pressed relief pattern.
Construction: Classic bentwood with the recognizable double arch in the backrest and the sturdy cross bracing under the frame. Condition: The chairs are in beautiful condition and feature an authentic gloss finish, which at the time ensured extra durability in a café or bistro setting.
Estimated period: Circa 1925 – 1940 (Interwar period). Beautiful antique/vintage examples nearly 90 to 100 years old. The combination of the classic Thonet style, the early branding, and the pressed relief seat typifies the absolute heyday of Finnish craftsmanship at Schauman.
A unique opportunity for lovers of Scandinavian design and mid-century bentwood furniture to bring home a complete, authentic set.
