Brno Chairs (set of 2)

Model: Brno Flat Bar Side Chair / Designer: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich / Manufacturer: Knoll / The Brno Chair is a modernist cantilever chair designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich in 1929–1930 for the bedroom of the Tugendhat House in Brno, Czech Republic.
The design was based on similar chairs created by Mies van der Rohe in collaboration with Lilly Reich, such as the MR20 chair with a wicker seat from 1927, based on earlier designs by Mart Stam. The Brno chair has become a classic of modern furniture. It has very clean lines, consisting of a single-piece steel frame, bent into a C-shape from the centre of the backrest, around the front edge of the seat (to create armrests) and back under the seat for the cantilever effect, with a taut seat and backrest covered in leather. There are two versions of the chair, one in tubular steel and the other in flat steel. The metal was originally polished stainless steel.
The Brno Chair was selected by Dan Cruickshank as one of his 80 man-made “treasures” in the 2005 BBC series, Around the World in 80 Treasures.
