1200 Woluwe Saint Lambert

Very nice set of six 'bistro' chairs by Jacob & Josef Kohn. These Viennese chairs carry the number 67 in the catalog of this Austrian company founded in 1848.
They are characterized by a solid beech wood structure with a curved, thermoformed seat and back. This embossed wood forms relief motifs reminiscent of the Henri II style.
The very good seat with a granite-like appearance is surrounded and squared at the front and bolted at the back. The backs are openwork, curved and tilted backward.
Each chair bears the J&J Kohn stamp under the belt. Some still bear the stamp “Jacob & Josef Kohn, Wien” under the seat.

J. & J. Kohn:
Jacob & Josef Kohn was the leading competitor of the Thonet firm at the turn of the 20th century.
The firm engaged avant-garde Viennese architects Josef Hoffmann, Siegel and Moser to create modern, enticing furniture for an affluent clientele.
