Description from the seller

The famous THONET coffeehouse chair is still regarded today as the most successful industrial product in the world. It was Michael Thonet who perfected bending solid wood in the 1850s, thereby laying the groundwork for the mass production of the THONET chair. The minimalist aesthetics, reduced to the essentials, allow the chair to find its place in practically any setting, either standing out as a focal point or lingering unobtrusively in the background.
The coffeehouse chair is upholstered and was designed by Michael Thonet around 1859. The fabric cover is grey, the wood is black-stained. The chair has a seat height of 47 cm, height 84 cm, width 43 cm, depth 52 cm, and is in good condition.

This concerns a relatively new version.
