The Thonet S320 dining set, designed by Wulf Schneider and Ulrich Böhme, is an iconic example of functional and progressive furniture design. This complete set, consisting of four chairs and a matching dining table, combines the manufacturer's rich woodworking tradition with a sleek, architectural design language.
The chairs feature an ergonomically shaped pressed wood seat shell, finished in a deep, dark blue hue. The frame is an ingenious construction in which the wooden front legs seamlessly transition into the armrests, supported by a chrome-plated metal sled frame at the rear. The accompanying rectangular table shares the same refined finish and the distinctive tubular frame, creating a visually cohesive whole. The wood grain remains subtly visible through the dark finish, contributing to the tactile quality of the set.
The set is in good, functional condition consistent with previous use. The woodwork and chrome elements have developed an authentic character over the years, while the structural integrity of both the table and the chairs has been fully preserved. This timeless dining set comes into its own perfectly in a modern or minimalist interior. The combination of dark wood and glossy chrome offers a strong graphic contrast that leaves a convincing impression in both a residential dining room and a representative office environment.
