Set of 20 Fully Restored Egon Eiermann Folding Chairs in Beech and Plywood, 1952
-
Description
These folding chairs, model SE18, were designed in 1952 by German architect Egon Eiermann for Wilde & Spieth. Its frame is made from beech wood whereas the seat and backrest are made from molded plywood with beech veneer. The chair is now on display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in their permanent modern art collection and it was shown at the World Exhibition Brussels in 1958.
Egon Eierman was one of Germany's most significant architects in the second half of the 20th century. Alongside designing significant modernist buildings, he also designed various items of furniture, in particular seating, that are now true design classics.
These chairs are 70 years old and still in very good condition because they were fully restored by a professional who dedicated a lot of time and energy to fix the veneer. Still visible bu thte result is a lovely set of folding chairs by Egon Eiermann that could easily last another 70 years! -
