Set of Four Tecta D41-Style Cantilever Chairs by Marcel Breuer
Set of Four Tecta D41-Style Cantilever Chairs by Marcel Breuer

Set of Four Tecta D41-Style Cantilever Chairs by Marcel Breuer

By Marcel Breuer

Located in Los Angeles, CA

Set of four cantilever side chairs produced by Tecta, following the D41 design developed by Marcel Breuer in the late 1920s. Each chair features a chrome tubular steel sled frame supporting a woven synthetic seat and back shell. The open basket-weave pattern in black synthetic material forms a continuous curved shell from seat to back, sitting atop the signature C-form cantilever base with small rubber feet. Breuer developed the cantilever chair concept at the Bauhaus, drawing on the structural principle that a continuous steel tube, properly tensioned, could replace the traditional rear legs entirely. The D41 became one of the definitive expressions of this idea, pairing the industrial clarity of the steel frame with a woven seat and back that softened the chair's structural rigor. Tecta, the German manufacturer, has long produced Bauhaus-lineage furniture...

Vintage, New and Antique Side Chairs

Antique and vintage side chairs are space savers by design and wonderfully versatile pieces of seating for your dining room or wherever guests may gather.

Chairs have been indispensable pieces of furniture for a long time. We sit, therefore we deserve good seating. In Ancient Egypt, chairs were utilized in homes regardless of class, and most furniture was made of wood. Comfortable folding chairs, for example, were found in King Tutankhamun’s tomb.

Chairs evolved to be more commonplace in the 1830s, and by the Industrial Revolution, they could be found in most homes. The traditional wooden side chair might feature an upholstered back and seat and was typically used for gathering around a big dining room table. Because the side chair does not feature armrests, it could easily be tucked under the table when not in use or delicately placed in a corner for decorative purposes. Today, the side chair’s slim silhouette and armless design still offer the same level of versatility as it did in its early days. It’s supportive of a large gathering for a meal in the dining room or kitchen and serves as an accent piece (or extra seating) resting against the wall in a living room or inviting foyer.

When shopping for side chairs, think about the colors and furniture style you’ve already introduced to your living room or dining room. Keep the height of your sofa in mind, for example. If you intend to pair your sofa with your side chair when it’s not perched near the dining table, it wouldn’t hurt if the height of your side chair matches the height of your sofa. Even if your side chair will largely be used in the kitchen or dining room, it will likely be used in the living room or home entertainment area as well. When you’re thinking about the seating where meals are served in your home, benches, stools and armchairs make suitable alternatives too. And if you’re feeling adventurous, combining a variety of dining room seating options can be both aesthetically pleasing and downright practical.

Side chairs are available in a number of styles today, and this convenient seating is one of the types of chairs you should know when furnishing your new home. Explore antique and vintage side chairs on 1stDibs. Find Art Deco side chairs and mid-century modern side chairs, or search by creator to find side chairs crafted by legendary designers like Charles and Ray Eames and others.
