A brief history of the chair
The chair is called “Sled” or “Sleigh” due to the distinctive shape of its base. These icons of French design are inspired by the Scandinavian style thanks to their elegant, understated, and clean lines.
Just like Thonet, Khon, Mundus, Baumann is synonymous with quality and a privileged witness to an era rich in inventiveness.
