THONET S64 VDR Swivel chair

Among the tubular steel furniture models, the cantilever chair S 32 stands out for its exceptional versatility. It integrates seamlessly into different design environments and effortlessly complements both uncompromisingly modern interior designs and eclectic mixes that embrace different eras and styles. The cantilever chair S 32, together with its counterpart, the version S 64 with armrests, is one of the best-known tubular steel classics.

The enduring popularity of these chairs is due to the harmonious blend of old and new elements: Thonet's rich tradition of manufacturing 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 contemporary and future design ethos. Their adaptability has led to the enduring success of these cantilever chairs, designed by Marcel Breuer during his time in Berlin in 1928. Thonet has produced both models since 1930.

Characterised by aesthetic simplicity and clarity, combined with the lightness of wickerwork, these classics integrate seamlessly into a variety of environments. Whether in meeting rooms, waiting areas, restaurants or private homes, the S 32 and S 64 remain timeless pieces that effortlessly enhance different spaces.
