ABOUT PRODUCTID 9434
This set of four chairs, designed by Antonin Šuman for TON in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s, embodies the essential qualities of Central European modernism. The frames are crafted from solid wood in a warm, medium-brown tone with a matte finish, accentuating the natural grain and smoothness of the surface. The distinctive backrests, composed of five gently curved vertical slats, lend the chairs an airy and transparent silhouette. The legs are subtly tapered and splayed, contributing to both visual lightness and structural stability. Each seat is upholstered in a new, high-quality mustard-yellow fabric with a soft, velvety texture, providing a striking contrast to the brown wood. The construction is precise, with seamless joints and well-balanced proportions characteristic of mid-century modern design. The set has been fully restored—both wood and upholstery are fresh, showing no signs of use or repair. These chairs echo the voice of 1960s Czech modernism: simplicity of form, everyday functionality, and a quiet optimism. The curved back slats recall an era when design was meant to serve daily life rather than overwhelm it. The mustard-yellow upholstery brings a note of energy and hope, reminiscent of postwar Central Europe—as if each chair tells a story of gatherings, conversations, and the comfort of a modern home. The set can be paired with a classic light wood dining table or a geometric mid-century style tabletop. It will fit seamlessly in a dining room or living area inspired by mid-century modern aesthetics, but also in an eclectic interior where the yellow accent becomes a reference point for other elements—ceramic vessels, Murano glass, or minimalist graphics. Combining these chairs with natural fabrics, potted plants, and softly contoured lighting will enhance their
