Albert Haberer Cherry Wood Chairs for Hermann Fleiner, Germany 1950s

Creator: Albert Haberer -Hermann Fleiner
Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
This pair of Arts and Crafts chairs is a version of the perhaps most well-known model of German designer, Albert Haberer. The spindle backs and armrests makes the design an immediately recognizable piece of German mid-century design history.

Wood is the most traditional material for furniture, it is organic, elemental, sturdy, and has become very stylish. While during the industrial revolution, furniture manufactured from materials such as steel, aluminium, glass and plastic, began to appear, wood has remained a staple material in furniture manufacturing, especially in Europe. The design of these chairs offers plenty visually with a striking construction and personality. The fan shaped backrests are composed of wooden spindles with horizontal tops, where beautiful leather connections are woven between the spindles and secured with screws that also give the backrests both strength and flexibility. The masterfully sculpted and symmetrically arranged individual spindles continue in the arms in this version of Albert Haberer’s design, elevating the appeal of the individual cherry wood spindles. While these undeniably define the look, the seats and legs are also very appealing. The seats have an appealing oval shape with sculpted edges to accommodate the sitter, while the legs are splayed to provide stability. The expertise of Hermann Fleiner is evident in the woodworking and overall execution of this pair, with precisely sculpted and assembled structures.

Whether it is an armoire in the family room or a chair in the dining room, wood furniture manufacturers of the mid-20th century managed to combine the eternal beauty and practicality of wood. The timeless pieces such as these Albert Haberer models, are sure to last several lifetimes without ever going out of style.
