1960s Mid-Century Grey Czech Armchairs, a Pair
About the Item
A pair of armchairs produced in the former Czechoslovakia. This 1960s design is re-upholstered in an updated grey fabric, the neutral tone was chosen to compliment the elegant black of the hardwood frame. Comfortable angles and clean lines, the hardwood frame is designed to comfort and delight, influenced by the mid-20th Century Modernist movement in Central Europe.
The bentwood shape is infused with dynamism and movement, reflecting the origins of the technique and the optimism of the industrial revolution-- steam bent furniture was a technological innovation developed by the Thonet Brothers at the end of the 19th century.
In the Eastern Bloc, the dynamic forces of Modernism met the stark reality of post-war necessity, producing a simplification of form, boiled down to a haunting beauty. Those bold shapes are graced with nicks and scratches; layers of paint revealing the passage of time. The paint finish contrasts with the plush texture of fresh upholstery, our fabrics are selected from a palette of high-tech stain resistant synthetic-natural blends which offer the best of both beauty and performance.
The ergonomic shape subtly reinforces the human form through padded points of contact. A humble homage, expressed through resolute functionality, these chairs are a testament to the enduring spirit of humankind and the shadow of history.
