Classic from Thonet: Chair 214

Today it rains classics even more: The '214' is virtually the original model of the bentwood chairs.

The famous coffeehouse chair is an icon and is still considered the most successful industrial product in the world today: with it the history of modern furniture began.

It was based on a new technique, the bending of solid wood, which Michael Thonet perfected in the 1850s, making series production possible in the first place.

And there was an ingenious sales idea: 36 disassembled chairs were packed in a box of one cubic meter, sent all over the world and assembled on site.

With its clear, reduced aesthetics, this classic has been used in a wide variety of environments for over 150 years - and by no means just in a coffee house! It is produced at the 'Thonet' plant in Frankenberg.

This beautiful chair will soon be standing in your home. It looks really good at a dining table and is a piece with a lot of history and comfort, my dears!
