Marcel Breuer & Wassily Chairs

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.

Francesca Breuer at the Breuer House in New Canaan, CT

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."

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.

Perfect!

Easy to assemble, even by people who begin the task with, "I think our drill has a driver. Go find the instruction manual!" Quality of all components is evident during assembly. We sat on those "other" imports in a local store, and Breuer Chairs are superior in every way-very sturdy and comfortable-and the Chrome/Natural finish matches our kitchen perfectly!

Poor Chairs

The quality is horrible! I would not recommend these chairs. I waited patiently for 6 weeks and had such high hopes, but unfortunately the holes in the seat and the holes in the legs aren't fully aligned so the nails aren't able to be drilled through. After multiple tries with my power drill and even contacting Customer Support, they were not able to help me. As a result, the chairs are wobbly because they're not fully attached.

A power drill/screwdriver is desirable to assemble more than a single chair.

We had a set of these chairs approximately thirty plus years ago but ultimately gave them to family members when we remodeled. Still have same great quality and dynamite looks with a kitchen table. Glad we found these again.

Cute but hard to assemble

Super cute chairs that could have been easier to put tgt. It�s impossible to assemble alone and without an electronic drill. That said the chair is cute and sturdy.

These are the real deal. The quality of construction is great, and the wood quality is top notch. If you�re looking for a classic piece to use in transitional or contemporary decor, these chairs are worth the investment.

Screw holes not coordinated for assembly.

Chair back hole indicators were not accurate. When this was questioned, the response was to send same instructions which came with the chair. Not properly coordinated.
