Set of 4 vintage Wassily Armchair by Marcel Breuer for Gavina 1972

This is a black leather Wassily chair and was designed in 1925 by Marcel Breuer and manufactured by Gavina, 1972. Inspired by the frame of a bicycle and influenced by the constructivist theories of the De Stijl movement, Marcel Breuer was still an apprentice at the Bauhaus when he reduced the classic club chair to its elemental lines and planes, forever changing the course of furniture design. The Wassily chair is a widely recognized masterpiece of modern furniture, having long ago achieved iconic status.
