Vintage Dining chair n.1515 by Oswald Haerdtl for TON Company 1955

Oswald Haerdl, one of the most important Austrian Architects of the 20th Century designed this chair labelled ’No. 1515’ in 1955. Haerdl was a master of proportions. Like his architecture, there is a total focus on every detail, the materiality as well as the overall design concept. In this piece, he created an expressive design form with a minimalist language: the solid beech and bent plywood is a continuous form that acts as both the backrest and the armrests simultaneously, with minimal fixings hidden within the plywood. This piece is in original vintage condition with a patina acquired over the years.
