## Summary

Modernist lounge chair featuring a black ultra-matte powder-coated tubular steel frame with black leather slings.

## Description

In spirit and stature, Marcel Breuer's Wassily Chair (1925) from Knoll has few equals. Believed to be the first bent tubular steel chair design, the Wassily Chair distills the traditional club chair to a series of strong, spare lines, executed with dynamic material counterpoint. Inspired by the curving handlebars of the Adler bicycle, the Wassily’s chrome-finished tubular steel frame is seamless in its assemblage. The design’s seating surfaces – cowhide leather, belting leather, or canvas slings – maintain their crisp tautness for decades. Named for Wassily Kandinsky, the father of abstract painting and a colleague of Breuer's at the Bauhaus, the Wassily Chair is a symbol of the industrial heroism and engineering invention of the early 20th century. Made in Italy.
