Thonet 118 H bar stool

Design: Sebastian Herkner

Elegant at the bar with the Thonet 118 H bar stool

Minimalist and elegant: the chair with the seat height of 75 centimeters is reminiscent of the company founder Michael Thonet, who designed wooden chairs with and without wickerwork as early as the mid-19th century. The wooden chair made of beech has rounded legs on the outside, on the inside they are straight, so the legs repeat the intentional shape, they are as horseshoe-shaped as the seat. The seat is made of wickerwork. The design is by Sebastian Herkner, who also designed the THONET 118 furniture.
