About this vintage design furniture

"The Rey chair became the most successful Swiss chair of all time. The design that emerged from a period of countless experiments was the model 3300, the Rey chair, which has become one of the most iconic works of Swiss industrial design. Made from locally sourced beech wood, it was built with a unique, boltless, distinctive combination of metal and wood. It entered mass production in 1971 and was the first chair patented by Dietiker a year later. In Rey’s design, the chair’s legs are connected to the self-supporting circular seat by an aluminum console, which was still handcrafted in 197071 by sand casting and then produced by gravity casting. In 1989, the invention of aluminum die casting allowed the industrial production of the chair in large series. Except for the final finishing, the entire production process could then be done by machine, including the gluing of wood and metal on an adhesive carousel. The chairs are in good condition - stable - they have been refreshed - but traces of time have been retained.
