An all-rounder: S 661 tubular steel chair Thonet
A chair for every situation - the S 661 tubular steel chair by Thonet is an all-rounder among the manufacturer's design chairs. The design by Günter Eberle dates back to the early fifties and is now being reissued. Whether dining area, living room, home office or public space - the simple yet very shapely chair with its moulded wood seat shell always works. Its reduction and design minimalism are convincing all along the line.
Thonet - more than 200 years of tradition
The Frankenberg-based manufacturer stands for durability and an irrepressible drive for innovation. Thonet was the first manufacturer to bring bentwood furniture to market and the first to sell tubular steel furniture. Michael Thonet founded his own workshop in Boppard am Rhein in 1819. In the 1830s he experimented with strips of veneer boiled in glue and is therefore regarded as the inventor of "furniture made of bent wood". In 1842, he was invited to Vienna by the Austrian state chancellor Prince Metternich and the coffee house culture there laid the foundation for Thonet's later success. Given this desire for innovation, it is not surprising that Thonet also cultivated links with the Bauhaus and Marcel Breuer. Thonet implemented Breuer's experiments with cold-bent tubular steel and produced the famous cantilever chairs.
Material and format
The chair consists of a tubular steel frame and a seat shell made of moulded plywood. It is 52 cm wide, 54 cm deep and 82 cm high.
