Armchair Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe VDR_22 - Metal Frame, Leather Covering
Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe 1930
- 100% Made in Italy -
Between 1927 (the year of his first exhibitions at the Weißenhof) and 1930, Mies Van Der Rohe, with the collaboration of his friend Lily Reich, developed various prototypes of tubular steel cantilever chairs. At least one original tubular version is still existing, characterized by a more inclined seat and a wicker covering, which in 1930 gave the cue for the small armchair of the Tugendhat house’s dining-room in Brno. The characteristics of the one designed for the Tugendhat house were modified by Mies to adapt its comfort at the dining room. It was initially produced by Berliner Metallgewerbe Joseph Müller, and from 1931 by Bamberg Metalwerkstätten.
Inspired by the design by Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe, the armchair is manufactured with high resistance rectangular steel frame mm 25x2 ASFORM 460, cold rolled, chromed at 26 micron and shine polished. Cantilever structure.
Steamed ashwood seat and back, with elastic cords, covered with 75 density indeformable foam.
