Thonet 214 P Upholstered solid wood chair

The famous coffee house chair is an icon and considered the most successful mass produced product in the world to date: it initiated the history of modern furniture.‎ The basis was a new technique – the bending of solid wood – that Michael Thonet developed and perfected during the 1850s, and it was the first time serial furniture production was possible.‎ Added was an ingenious distribution model: 36 disassembled chairs could be packed into a one cubic metre box, shipped throughout the world, and then assembled on site.‎ With its clear, reduced aesthetics this classic has been placed in the most diverse environments for more than 150 years.‎ It is produced in our Frankenberg facility.‎
