AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The offered chair is the classic model type 200/100B, designed by Mieczysław Zieliński and produced in the late 1960s by the Opolski Ośrodek Przemysłu Meblarskiego. It is an excellent example of Polish utilitarian design from the PRL era, combining functionality with an elegant, modernist form.
The construction is made of beech wood and is characterized by lightness and stability; the upholstery is in good condition and does not require replacement. The chair shows signs of use, everything is visible in the photos. Thanks to its timeless form, the chair fits wonderfully with both vintage interiors and modern arrangements.

Mieczysław Zieliński was one of the important furniture designers in post-war Poland. His works were created during a period of intense national reconstruction and development of the furniture industry. He primarily designed mass-produced furniture—accessible to a wide audience—but he also cared about aesthetics and ergonomics.
His designs, such as type 200/100B, are today valued for:
- timeless design
- solid construction
- representativeness of Polish modernism of the 1960s.

The chair was created at a time when the Polish furniture industry was developing dynamically. Plants like the Opolski Ośrodek Przemysłu Meblarskiego produced furniture on a large scale, meeting the needs of residents in blocks of flats built with large-panel systems.
Despite mass production, many projects—including this model—stood out for their high design quality, which today makes them sought-after collectible objects.
Dimensions:
height: 82 cm
seat height: 45 cm
width: 40 cm
depth: 41 cm.
