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.

Time will tell
These seem ok, but the seats and backs are very lightweight so we'll see how they hold up. The caning had some uneven color, but that seems normal. I plan to put a Danish oil finish on them. The seat is not predrilled, which seems odd for the average buyer (altho I guess there is a dimple). I made a mistake in my order in terms of the color and had to pay a bit higher than I hoped for the exchange. Customer service was adequate.

Great exact classic look, excellent quality
Beautiful, just like the knoll version. It has pressed cane, not woven into the seat which may create a stylistic discrepancy some won�t like, but otherwise it�s just as great as the original. Added benefit is I don�t think knoll supplies the chair in walnut. It�s a great look!

Great Classic Chair
My mother has had one of these probably since the 60s which was falling apart and she wanted a replacement. This was a perfect match and easy to assemble. She is thrilled.

Stylish, practical and quality
I have been searching all over for these chairs. They are way too expensive like over $1000 for vintage or even new. I found them here and honestly was a little skeptical but I have to say I am pleased. The color is amazing not to mention the quality. I did choose to assemble myself with takes time to see how they will look in my dining room but really simple to do. I enjoy building so it wasn�t hard for me. I recommend these chairs.

Love the chairs but don�t let anyone 200 lbs or more sit on this chair. The chrome will bend and the seat will no longer be level.
