Description from the seller
Pair of bentwood chairs in Thonet style, dating to the first half of the XX century (circa 1920–1940). Made of steam-bent beechwood using traditional Viennese craftsmanship, they represent a classic example of elegant and functional bistro seating.
The chairs feature a lightweight yet sturdy structure, with vertical slatted backrests and circular shaped seats enhanced by a refined carved decorative motif. Their flowing and harmonious lines reflect the iconic Thonet design, appreciated for its simplicity and timeless appeal.
Good condition, with signs of age and use: surface wear, original patina, and minor marks on the wood that confirm their authenticity and history.
Approximate dimensions:
• Height: approx. 84–90 cm
• Seat height: approx. 45–46 cm
• Width: approx. 40–45 cm
• Depth: approx. 50–52 cm
Perfect for vintage interiors, cafés, or classic-style environments.
