The armchair, which can be found in the Thonet catalog from 1904, impresses with its elegant black finish and the characteristic Viennese weave that adorns both the seat and the high backrest.

The armrests and legs of the armchair are artfully curved and give the piece of furniture a harmonious and aesthetic lightness that makes Thonet furniture so unique.

This technique made it possible to shape wood into elegant, curved shapes that were not only strong and durable, but also extremely stylish. The present fireplace chair is an excellent example of this innovative technology and embodies the perfect mix of functionality and aesthetic design that Thonet is known for.

This exquisite piece of furniture, complete with the original weave and maker's signature, is not only a sought-after collector's item, but also a timeless piece that will enrich any room with its classic charm and history.
