Armchair with Ottoman in Bentwood and Canvas Webbing, Czech Republic, 1930s

About the Item

Armchair with Ottoman in Bentwood and Canvas Webbing, Czech Republic, 1930s – Restored A rare and beautifully restored lounge chair with matching ottoman, designed in 1930s Czechoslovakia. This early modernist set showcases the refined use of bentwood, a hallmark of Central European craftsmanship during the interwar period. The armchair’s elegant, wavy frame is made from steam-bent beech wood, skillfully shaped into a high, gently reclined back and sweeping armrests. The ottoman mirrors the chair’s curved, airy aesthetic — creating a unified and sculptural silhouette that remains visually light yet structurally strong. Both pieces feature newly woven canvas webbing, arranged in a clean grid of horizontal and vertical straps. This upholstery style lends a subtle graphic quality to the design, while offering breathable, flexible comfort. The webbing has been completely replaced using high-quality cotton canvas, staying true to the original method while ensuring durability for modern living. The bentwood frames have been professionally restored — cleaned, lightly refinished, and sealed to enhance the natural patina and grain of the beech wood, without losing their vintage character. Dimensions: Chair – Depth: 105 cm, Width: 70 cm, Height: 97 cm, Seat Height: 33 cm Ottoman – Depth: 49 cm, Width: 52 cm, Height: 32 cm An iconic example of 1930s Czech bentwood design, this lounge set is a testament to early modernist ideals: elegant, ergonomic, and enduring. A timeless collectible, now ready for contemporary interiors.
