The Thonet S35 armchair, designed by Marcel Breuer, is an iconic piece of furniture from the Bauhaus period. This design combines a tubular frame with a floating seat, creating a striking and timeless silhouette. The chair is a classic example of modernist design, where functionality and aesthetics go hand in hand.
This specific version is crafted with a chrome-plated steel tubular frame and is upholstered in black leather. The armrests are finished with black lacquered wood, offering a subtle contrast to the shiny metal. The design utilizes a continuous tubular construction that ensures a springy and comfortable seating experience. The chair features the original Thonet label on the frame.
The chair is in a condition commensurate with its age and use. The leather has developed an authentic patina and the construction is fully functional. The chair retains its original character and structural integrity. Two buckles show significant wear; see photos.
This armchair fits perfectly in a modernist or industrial interior. It is a striking piece for a reading nook or as an addition to a seating area, where it adds both comfort and historical design value.
