Chair designed by Ligna in the style of Thonet, circa 1940.
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Vintage Bentwood Armchair by Ligna – Czechoslovakian Design, Circa 1940 – A Classic Thonet-Inspired Piece Elevate your space with this stunning bentwood armchair designed by Ligna in the iconic style of Thonet, circa 1940. Manufactured in Czechoslovakia, this chair is a striking example of timeless design and craftsmanship, blending form and function in perfect harmony. Featuring the signature curves of bentwood, a technique that revolutionized furniture design in the early 20th century, this chair is not only a piece of furniture but a work of art. Originally designed in 1900, the Thonet-inspired design of this armchair was favored by many famous architects and designers, including Le Corbusier, who admired its elegant simplicity and ergonomic comfort. This particular example is marked with an attribution label, making it a valuable collector's piece with historical significance. In good original condition, the chair shows minor wear consistent with age, adding to its vintage charm and authenticity. The rattan webbing has been entirely renewed, ensuring durability and a refreshed look while maintaining the chair's classic appeal. The warm, natural wood tones and elegant lines make this chair a versatile addition to any home, whether placed in a contemporary setting or as a stylish accent in a more traditional décor. With its graceful silhouette and expert craftsmanship, this chair is more than just a seat—it’s a statement piece that will complement any room, from living rooms to studies, dining areas, or offices. Materials: Bentwood Rattan (newly replaced webbing) Dimensions: D 58 cm x W 56 cm x H 78 cm A must-have for design lovers, collectors, or anyone who appreciates classic mid-century furniture.
