Designed by the visionary Austrian architect Otto Wagner, this exceptional pair of Thonet No. 6514 armchairs represents a pinnacle of early 20th-century Viennese design, blending modernist sensibilities with timeless craftsmanship. Meticulously restored to their original splendor, these armchairs showcase the iconic bentwood technique pioneered by Thonet, with gracefully curved lines that exude both strength and elegance. The rich politur finish enhances the natural beauty of the wood grain, lending a warm, lustrous glow that elevates their aesthetic appeal. The seats and backrests are upholstered in sumptuous cream-colored leather, carefully selected for its soft texture and durability, providing a striking contrast to the dark wood frame. This luxurious upholstery not only ensures exceptional comfort but also adds a touch of sophistication, making these chairs a perfect addition to refined interiors, from classic dining rooms to contemporary living spaces. Measuring H76 x W54.5 x D55 cm, the armchairs are proportioned to offer both ergonomic support and a compact footprint, ideal for versatile placement in various settings. A testament to Wagner’s innovative approach and Thonet’s mastery of bentwood furniture, this pair is a rare find, restored with precision to preserve their historical integrity. Whether displayed as a statement piece or integrated into a curated collection, these No. 6514 armchairs embody the enduring legacy of Viennese Secessionist design. Literature: cf.
