Chairs and Armchairs by Pierre Paulin for Thonet, Set of 4

About This Piece

Vintage Design

2 chairs, model CM196, and 2 armchairs, model CM197, Pierre Paulin. These models were made by Thonet in the 60s, and are absolutely key pieces of mid-century design. Their seat is ultra comfortable, with their foam on the seat and back. The design is aerial and pure, giving these models a totally timeless and very elegant look. All seats have been reupholstered by an upholsterer with high density foam and a layer of absorbent cotton. The new fabric is a high quality woolen curly fabric in ivory white. The metal base is entirely original and shows some traces of wear due to the age of the chairs but gives them a beautiful patina. A timeless & ultra chic must have, increasingly rare on sale.
