THONET S 32 BARSTOOL

The cantilever chair S 32, among the various models of tubular steel furniture, stands out for its exceptional versatility. It integrates seamlessly into various design worlds and effortlessly complements both uncompromisingly modern interior designs and eclectic mixes that celebrate different eras and styles. The cantilever chair S 32, together with its counterpart with armrests, the version S 64, holds a position as one of the most renowned tubular steel classics.

The enduring popularity of these chairs is the result of the captivating combination of old and new elements: Thonet's long tradition of making bentwood furniture with its characteristic Viennese wickerwork contrasts with the pioneering use of tubular steel. The seat and backrest, made of bent solid wood with wickerwork, embody tradition, while the frame represents the present and future of design. Their versatility has made these cantilever chairs bestsellers and has maintained their popularity to this day.

Designed by Marcel Breuer during his time in Berlin in 1928, Thonet has produced both the S 32 and S 64 models since 1930. Their aesthetic reduction and clarity, combined with the lightness of airy wickerwork, make these classics fit seamlessly into diverse settings – from conference rooms and waiting areas to restaurants and private homes.
