With the assistance from modernist designer Lilly Reich, van der Rohe was nominated to design the Weimar Republic’s Pavilion at the Barcelona International Exposition of 1929.
The goal of this design was to create a chair fit for royalty. People say that the campaign chairs of ancient Rome were a source of inspiration. This combination of old world design with modernist ideas is what made these chairs so legendary.
This iconic Mid-Century silhouette, in distressed vintage leather, is a page out of the modern designers’ handbook, making it the go-to chair for stylish home and office projects. It is often placed in pairs to create smart, conversational spaces.
Featuring: Vintage Argentinian leather dyed and processed using our signature 18-step finishing system, polished stainless steel frame with a low profile design, cushions are hand cut, sewn, and button tufted and includes a welted edge.
