ABOUT PRODUCTID 23536
This bentwood armchair, model No. 6048, designed by Otto Wagner for Thonet around 1900, embodies the spirit of early Viennese modernism. Crafted in warm, medium-dark brown wood with a subtle reddish undertone and a semi-gloss finish, the chair reveals the natural grain in a refined, consistent tone. The construction features slender, gently tapered legs, seamlessly integrated with softly curved armrests and a flowing backrest, resulting in a light, harmonious silhouette. The pressed plywood seat displays delicate wave-like creases—a testament to the innovative bending techniques of the turn of the 20th century. Every element is wooden, with no metal fittings or upholstery. The chair is preserved in excellent, restored condition: the structure and seat have been reinforced, and a fresh finish highlights the noble patina without compromising the original character.This chair carries the narrative of an era when Vienna was a crucible of modernity and Otto Wagner—a leader of the Secessionist movement—championed functional, honest design and structural clarity. The bentwood silhouette and restrained detailing evoke a transition from decorative historicism toward a cleaner modernist approach. Each curve and joint reflects the spirit of innovation at the turn of the century, while the wood's grain and patina speak to a deep respect for craftsmanship and material authenticity.The armchair may be paired with classic Secessionist furniture or juxtaposed with contemporary minimalist pieces. It will sit comfortably in a living room beside a marble-topped table or at a light wood desk, where it bridges tradition and modernity. Consider combining it with neutral textiles and metal or glass accents to emphasize its balanced character. Interiors inspired by Viennese Secession, early modernism, or sophisticated eclecticism will offer an ideal setting for this piece.
