Product description
Frank Lloyd Wright "Barrel" chairs for Cassina, patinated wood and velvet seat, Italy, 1986, set of six. A timeless design informed by exceptional constructive complexity, the iconic "Barrel" chair was created in 1937 by Frank Lloyd Wright, based on an original design dating from 1904. This barrel-shaped armchair is composed of 37 parts, each fitting into the other with pinpoint precision. The base and the chair back are constructed from three pieces of solid wood, bent at different angles. Each of the three pieces is then cut in two to counterbalance the tensions created during the steam-bending and the drying processes. The two parts are then placed back-to-back and glued together. The joints are all carved directly into the wood. The chairs are upholstered in dark green mohair velvet and are from the 1986 era.
These chairs are part of a complete dining set. You will find the Cassina 608 Talisien 2 dining table in my ads!
No technical flaws, no stains on upholstery. Some sign of use on the bottom of the legs.
