Thonet bistro chairs model 98
These three chairs are made of bent beech wood and feature a hand-woven rattan seat
This particular design stands out within the Thonet Brothers’ collection due to its unique, geometric backrest with slats and its characteristic rounded seat
The vertical slats and subtle decorative elements are reminiscent of the early Vienna Secession style.
They were made in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s
The Thonet labels have faded, but one chair still bears the inscription ‘made in Czechoslovakia’ on the underside
Light signs of wear consistent with age
