The 30 Dining Armchair carries one of furniture's great stories, a Thonet bentwood design dating to 1859 that modernists from Le Corbusier onwards have embraced. Its beech frame comes in a standard or pigment finish, with a veneer, cane or upholstered seat in a range of fabric and leather grades. Simple, light and unadorned, it feels right at a dining table, a desk or in the hall.
Key Features:
First designed in 1859 and nicknamed the chair of chairs, this Thonet design remains one of the world's most loved classics. Le Corbusier used it in his commissions from 1922 and in his pavilion at the 1925 Paris Exposition.
The frame is crafted from beech using the bentwood technique. Its curves are both structural and beautiful, a product of material and method in perfect agreement.
The chair's light weight is part of its charm. It is easy to lift, move and rearrange as life changes.
It sits as comfortably at the dining table as it does at a desk or in an entrance hall. One chair, many roles.
Choose a wooden veneer seat for a clean, honest look, or cane for texture and lightness. Alternatively, upholster the seat in one of a range of fabric and leather grades for extra comfort.
A standard finish celebrates the natural warmth of beech, while a pigment finish gives a contemporary twist. It is made by TON in the Czech Republic, in an original Thonet factory.
