This pair of Thonet style\u00a0bentwood chairs<\/strong> in steam-bent beech<\/em> shows a one-piece curved board back<\/em> supported by lower spindles and splayed legs. The round seat carries a central pressed pattern. Central Europe, circa 1920.<\/p>\n

Attributed to the <\/i>Thonet<\/i> tradition or the Central European bentwood school (including makers such as <\/i>Jacob & Josef Kohn<\/i> or <\/i>Fischel<\/i>), this piece reflects the formal and structural standards of early 20th-century Viennese production, although no maker\u2019s mark is present to confirm a definitive attribution.<\/i><\/p>\n

Vienna Secession bentwood seating covered every register: caf\u00e9 models, dining chairs, desk chairs. This variant with a full back \u2014 instead of the usual vertical spindles \u2014 was associated with slightly more formal use and bourgeois domestic interiors.<\/p>\n

The back is executed as a single piece curved in a mould, which required selected wood and precise steam calibration. Legs and lower hoops follow the classic bentwood technique, bending continuous rods to avoid mitred joints.<\/p>\n

The current patina is a deep walnut tone, even and honest, with consistent wear on the lower hoop and at the seat support points. The piece keeps its original finish without invasive restorations.<\/p>\n

They suit a quiet dining table, an entryway or a desk well. The taller back than on other models makes them especially comfortable for standard-height tables and for extended use.<\/p>\n
