LUDWIG MIES VAN DER ROHE BARCELONA LEATHER CHAIR MODEL 250.

Circa 1929, Germany. While 1929 was the introduction of the “Barcelona” chair by Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe (1886 – 1969) we feel that this chair may be of American manufacture, post WWII due to the variant of the construction technique. Most notably that the chair frame was manufactured from a single piece of steel without the use of connectors or joints. The end result was a sleek frame of exceptional quality and durability. Chrome plated steel frame is fitted with black leather seat and back supported by fixed vertical leather straps or struts. SIZE: 28-3/4″ h x 29-1/4″ w x 30″ d. CONDITION: Chair is very fine original condition with no wear, soiling or distress to leather covering. Suspension straps retain original firmness and attachment. Proper right rear leg exhibits small area of corrosion to chrome plating at outside bottom edge of leg. 49818-75 (4,000-6,000) – Lot 2351
