Description
Title: Set of (6) Bentwood Prague Model 811 Dining Chairs by Josef Frank Josef Hoffmann for Stendig Original Cane Seats & Backs, Poland, c. 1960s
About: Visually alluring and perfectly minimal this ultra rare set of walnut "Prague" Model 811 chairs are a true treasure. Designed by Austrian designers Josef Frank and Josef Hoffman for Thonet in the 1920's this timeless chair design is equal parts minimalist and aesthetically captivating. The hand-woven caning on the seats and backs are warm in color and see-through nature making the chair itself simultaneously understated and seductive. The curved legs and bentwood frames are also together audaciously minimal and elegant with exquisite old-growth woodgrains that are absolutely mesmerizing in natural light. With very few of these models available in walnut (most were made in beech) and fewer still available in a complete dining set of six chairs these exceptional "Prague" chairs won't last long. Make them yours today before they're gone forever.
