1930s “811” chair by Josef Hoffmann for Ligna, Czech

A beautiful chair, model 811, designed by Josef Hoffmann and manufactured by Ligna in Czech around 1930. The light wooden frame holds a webbing seat and back. Combined with the elegant shape of the structure, this gives the piece a wonderful, classical yet modern style. A nice dining chair, but it could also be used as an office chair or eye-catching side chair. It is marked on the frame underneath the seat, as shown in photos. This chair remains in good, vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina.
