S 33 / S 34 Cantilever Chair, Without armrests, Butt leather, Black, Black plastic glides with felt

The Dutch designer and architect Mart Stam was a pioneer of modern furniture design. His experiments in the early 1920s with industrial pipes brought him in 1926 to the development of the S 33, the first cantilever chair. Mart Stam made a significant contribution not only to the Weissenhof Estate project in Stuttgart, but also aroused an international sensation. During his lifetime, Mart Stam worked not only at the Bauhaus Dessau, but also oversaw projects on virtually every continent, projects which continue to attract even new admirers. His genre defining cantilever chair is marketed today by the German manufacturer Thonet, and remains his most famous product - if only because the design and engineering possibilities and thinking to construct a chair without back legs was unknown before Stam developed them. The S 33 is distinguished thanks to its teetering structure through a sense of convenience and ease. The S 34 in turn provides with its armrests an additional level of comfort, and an even more solid seating position. Regardless of which one chooses, both Thonet chairs, thanks to their mix of timeless design and elegant materials, genuinely enliven and enrich any room.
