Marcel Breuer's Story
Marcel Lajos Breuer was a Hungarian-American modernist
architect and furniture designer, known for the Wassily
Chair and the Cesca Chair, which The New York Times have
called some of the most important chairs of the 20th
century.
His work includes art museums, libraries, college
buildings, office buildings, and residences, among which
are:
New York's Whitney Museum of American Art (1966)
IBM Research Center in La Gaude, France (1961)
U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development
in Washington, D.C. (1963–1968)
UNESCO
Headquarters in Paris (1958)
He is regarded as one of the great innovators of modern
furniture design and one of the most-influential figure
in "internationalism" – a major architectural style
dominant until the 1970s.
Cesca Chair
Marcel Breuer created the Cesca Chair shortly after
leaving the Bauhaus in 1928 and named it after his
adopted daughter Francesca. The chair consists of a
tubular steel frame, rattan seat and backrest and
inherently tied to the material innovation and design
principles he formed at the German design school.
While designing the chair, Breuer found inspiration in
the tubular steel construction of a bicycle.
"Mass production and standardization had already
made me interested in polished metal, in shiny
and impeccable lines in space as new components
for our interiors. I considered such polished
and curved lines not only symbolic of our modern
technology, but actually technology itself."
Marcel Breuer
The Cesca chair was the first tubular-steel-frame,
caned-seat chair to be mass-produced. Now, the chair is
considered as one of "the 10 most important chairs of
the 20th century".
Manufacturer Details
As a leading manufacturer and supplier of Breuer Cesca Chairs
and chair replacement parts we have always considered wood,
metal, and natural cane as noble materials and this is reflected
in the final quality of all our products.
Through all phases of production, we maintain a respect for
nature and the many years that have gone into growing the wood
and cane we use. All our products are eco-friendly and made in
our factory in Italy. We use authentic solid Italian beech wood
with natural superior caning techniques used for over 50 years.
Many have tried to imitate our authentic products but they can
not duplicate our superior quality in craftsmanship. Our chair
frames are one piece and triple coated in chrome for long
lasting durability for years to come.
Since 1967, Breuer Chair Company's vision has endured – offering
high quality Italian-made products to the furniture and
restoration trade. Personalized products are available upon
request tailored to meet the specific needs of each customer's
home or business.

I would predrill
Chair seats came in good time, in good condition. Instructions say to just screw the screws in, but that wasn't possible. Pre drilled the holes, and all went well.
Bought the first four seats through Amazon. Purchased the second four seats directly from the company; saved a lot of money.

Wonderful service!
My order for seat replacement was delayed for a long time due to problems with shipping. During the delay Breuer Chair representatives kept in touch with me. Once the seats were available and my order was reconfirmed I received them very quickly. The seats were well packed and arrived in perfect condition. I really appreciate the efficient, competent service. I have had my chairs over 50 years and still love them.

Not very durable.
I was excited to find this replacement seat for my antique chair, but it wasn't long before the cane strips started fraying/breaking. For the price, I expected it to be treated with the appropriate protectant or to last longer as is. The original seat -- an antique -- lasted 20+ yrs in our possession. This replacement lasted about 1.5 yrs. Pretty disappointing.

Good product, terrible to install
installation is difficult. The pre-drilled holes are in the wrong places and in any event two small to have given the screws a decent start. The frame wood is very hard�and that's good�but even having accomplished the difficult task of lining everything up and drilling starting holes in the right places, one really needs a power screwdriver to do the thing right.

You get what you pay for
These replacement seats are made in Italy and last much longer than ones I bought that were made in China for half the price. The Chinese ones were ripping within a few months, but I've purchased three of these now and none of them have shown any weakness so far. They are relatively easy to install but the wood is not soft so a power drill makes putting the screws in easier over hand work. They were shipped within two days. I would buy these again. The price seems steep compared to others you might see, but they will last longer, and the workmanship on the caning is obviously much better.

STAY AWAY
I have the Cesca chairs from Knoll. One chair's caning broke, so I got this as a replacement until I could get the caning replaced. This is a problematic replacement for the following reasons:
1. Color: Completely wrong. It's much more brown and less yellow than the Knoll chairs
2. Bent Wood: The wood feels cheap. Whereas the Knoll chair has a continuous piece of bent wood, the wood here is glued together sloppily
3. Compatibility: it does not come with screws and the holes in place were not aligned with the holes in my chairs, so I couldn't even install.

Honey Oak color of the frame changed from last time ordered
The color change is noticeable on the frame. The new seats I bought have a distinctly gray black tint to them Still honey oak but looks like a charcoal wash applied. Disappointing. The cane itself is neutral and not honey oak. I expect it will yellow with age. The frame is manufactured by a different process as well.

Make sure you have a drill!
Product is as advertised! Shipping was fine. However, screw holes in the chair seat weren�t aligned with Chair Frame. Therefore, it was necessary to drill new holes to mount seat properly. A relatively easy remedy, but at that price shouldn�t have been necessary!!!!

It�s important to read the description carefully for dimensions and color to make sure it will fit.
The chair seat arrived on time, and it was very easy to screw into the chair�holes aligned perfectly! The only downside: the color of the caning on the new honey oak seat is lighter than what is on my current chairs�I knew that from the photo, so I moved some chairs around and put a chair pad on the new seat�problem solved. Now I�m going to order another one because another chair needs a new seat.

IDENTICAL TO THE ORIGINAL � SAVED MY CHAIR
High-quality replacement seat is identical to the broken original, and it saved my chair. I will be purchasing one for another broken chair too.
I only wish the cane were more durable over time. One trick I tried years ago that may help others is, I periodically wiped the cane (top and bottom surfaces) with a special banana oil product. Maybe if I'd kept up that maintenance, the cane would have lasted longer?

The rattan seated chair is based on a classic Bauhaus design and the manufacturers of these seats are helping enormously to preserve the existing chairs, by producing excellent seats and backs for the chairs, which inevitably wear out long before the framework of the chair itself.

Not happy with this product
I purchased several of these replacements seats because I no longer was able to get them at a local store. At first I ordered only one seat, just to be sure it was the proper size, etc. When it arrived, it appeared to be what I needed and I quickly ordered a few more. They fit my Breuer frames perfectly and they look nice, but they are so hard to sit on that my hip and leg started hurting! Even after a few weeks of use, there is not the slightest give to them. For the chair I generally use every day, I have had to substitute an old wooden chair; then I have to switch them around when someone other than family visits.
