Set of 2 Antique Bentwood Chairs painted in a beautiful Seafoam blue-green. The paint is distressed due to age.
These chairs bear the maker’s mark of the renowned German-Austrian cabinet maker, Michael Thonet.
The chairs were likely created between 1900 and 1915 at the Austrian company Gebruner Thonet (Thonet Brothers) by the sons and descendants of Michael Thonet, who lived from 1796-1871. The chairs are dated by the specific maker’s mark, “Thonet Austria,” and flat head screws and square nuts/bolts. Additionally, the undersides of the chairs feature floral relief patterns that were likely visible on the chair seat tops, but cannot be seen through the paint.
The chairs are time-worn, the paint is distressed, and the seats of the chairs are relatively delicate.
This listing is for the 2 chairs, only.
These chairs are for pick-up, only, in Pittsburgh, Pa due to size. Please schedule pickup after payment, Tuesday - Saturday 12pm - 5pm.
Dimensions:
34” total chair height
16-3/8” seat width
18-3/8” seat height
