The maker · Europe
Thonet bentwood
In the mid-nineteenth century Michael Thonet perfected bending solid beech with steam. The method produced light, strong chairs that could be shipped in parts and assembled anywhere, and the bentwood café chair became one of the most familiar objects in the world.
