This set of four dining chairs, designed by Oswald Haerdtl for the TON manufactory in 1950s Czechoslovakia, features a construction based on durable bent plywood and light oak legs finished with a clear lacquer, which enhances the wood's honey tone and visible grain. The backrests have a gently curved profile with a characteristic cut-out at the lower section, adding visual lightness to the overall silhouette. Seats and backrests are upholstered in matte emerald green velvet, offering a uniform texture and subtle sheen. The slender, slightly splayed legs contribute to proportions typical of mid-century modern design, while the seamless construction without visible joints demonstrates careful craftsmanship. The chairs remain stable, comfortable, and suitable for everyday use. Condition: fully restored, with no visible signs of wear or repairs—presenting as new and true to the original design.These chairs evoke the spirit of postwar Central Europe, where modernism met a need for approachable functionality. The sculpted backrest with its cut-out seems to suggest that even simplicity can offer gestures of hospitality and openness. The soft, saturated green velvet subtly catches the light, while the light oak introduces visual warmth—a dialogue of materials in keeping with the era's ethos. Every detail, from rounded edges to harmonious proportions, tells of a pursuit of balance between craftsmanship and modernity.The set would suit a dining room inspired by mid-century modern style, paired with a simple table in light wood or veneer. The chairs could be combined with a minimalist lamp and details in
