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.

Solid Breuer chair seat and back replacements - precision assembly and tools required

Vintage and replica chairs that require these new seats all have different hole spacing, even if they are made by the same manufacturer it seems. That being said, make sure you have all the necessary tools and help to fit the seats and backs, and expect it to be a bit of a project. If you don�t feel handy, have a pro do it for you. The seats and backs themselves are well made and well caned. The cane is not stained so you can darken it if needed to match other chairs etc. overall a good product and quick shipping considering where it was shipped from! Overall a good value considering the cost to replace just the cane itself professionally.

The chairs are really sturdy and great quality. They shipped super fast, I think it got here 2 days after I ordered it. There is some assembly (drilling and screwing required) but if you're handy with a drill, it's really straight forward and easy. I was being careless and accidentally drilled through one of my arm rest and Ben sent me a new one the next day free of charge.

Frame and chair misalignment

The frame did not match the instructions AT ALL. The holes that were created for the screws were completely misaligned, leading me to believe they shipped me the wrong frame for the chair.

Every single person who has walked into my house has commented on how much they love these chairs. great style for a reasonable price... to be honest I didn't love having to put them together, it was a process. that said it was worth it because they turned out so nice, thus not going to demerit any stars for that,

Good to have

These saved me having to buy new chairs. They appear to be well made and are sized perfectly. I had to drill new holes to match the placement of my previous components. The caning is the weak part of these otherwise terrific, comfortable, stylish chairs, meaning it's usually the seat that needs replacing. When ordering replacements I would advise ordering seat AND back. Otherwise you run the risk of the wood colors not exactly matching.

Nice Replacement Seats and Backs

I ordered two Breuer chair replacement sets--two seats and two backs. They were shipped promptly and were just what I needed to make my old chairs look like new. The replacement parts are very high quality. The wood is beautiful, and the caning is very nice. Meanwhile, the seller was very prompt in responding to a question, and it was clear to me that he wanted to make sure that I was satisfied with my purchase. I highly recommend these chair replacements and this seller. I will definitely return to this seller if I need replacement seats or backs for my other Breuer chairs!

Virtually like new

These replacements for a classic chair worked out extremely well. They are marked precisely for the screws and they fit the original frames perfectly. It would have been a shame to have to discard the chairs - and they are basically "new" now with a bit of muscle for attaching the screws myself - should have had a power driver to make quick work of it.
