Set of Four 1960's Mid Century Dining Chair by TON

An original set of four mid century modern dining chairs, designed and produced by ton furniture company in the 1960’s czechoslovakia. As a result of europe splitting in the west and east after the war, in 1953 ton was founded as direct evolution of the thonet company and was labelling its products as ton despite still using thonet factories and workers, technologies as well as owning some of their original furniture patents rights. These chairs date back to the so-called czech brussel style of the late 50s and early 60s but you can also see a strong scandinavian influence. The main design feature, apart from the stunning dark brown colour and the rich texture of the oak wood, are the dynamically curved backrest and the bright emerald green seats with soft black curled lines. These chairs were also produced with different finishes and in different fabrics but this dark brown and green combination might be one of the most striking. After all the years since they were originally produced, they still seem contemporary and modern. All four chairs are in great vintage condition with only absolutely minimal wear on the wooden surface. The fabric is also in great condition without any damage and in general it seems like these chairs were not used as much over the years as they are in really pristine condition.
