Wicker and painted metal armchair in Bauhaus style

Offered by: Vintage Domus Srl

Description
This captivating chair, with its sinuous structure and the combination of natural and industrial materials, immediately evokes a sense of nostalgia and a connection with the innovative design of the 20th century. The elegant and fluid curves of the metal frame, painted in a vibrant red, seem to dance in the space, lightly and delicately supporting the woven wicker seat, which embraces the sitter with a warm and welcoming hug.

This chair strongly reflects the influence of designer Erich Dieckmann, a central figure in furniture design during the 1920s and 1930s. Dieckmann, with his ability to fuse strict geometric lines and impeccable functionality, created pieces that have become icons of modernist design. The metal structure, with its tubular design and vivid red accent, aligns perfectly with Dieckmann’s aesthetic, who often played with simple forms and contrasting materials to create furniture that was both bold and functional.

The wicker of the seat, with its meticulous weaving, adds a sense of craftsmanship that contrasts yet complements the industrial look of the metal. This dualism between natural and industrial, craftsmanship and production, was at the heart of Dieckmann’s work, as he always sought to merge tradition and modernity in a harmonious dialogue.

Owning a chair like this means immersing oneself in an era of great change, where design was not just a matter of aesthetics, but a true philosophy of life. It is a piece that carries with it the history, passion, and innovation of a time when the world was discovering new ways of living and expressing itself through furniture.
