Description
A set of two chairs, two armchairs and a bench KOHN. Austria, early 20th century. Velvet upholstery and wooden structure. It presents stains and damages typical of the passage of time. Measurements: 122 x 104 x 47 cm (canapé); 59 x 55 x 99 cm (armchair); 40 x 45 x 93 cm (chair). This seating ensemble is an outstanding exponent of Viennese Art Nouveau. The openwork backrests and armrests are reminiscent of the creations of Michael Thonet, who invented his own technique for bending wood in a unique way, giving it great plasticity and lightness. They are raised on straight, molded legs. The upholstery is embellished with subtle floral motifs.
