History

The Barcelona Chair, a hallmark of modern design, is the result of the ingenuity of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, one of the masters of modernism, and Lilly Reich, his collaborator and renowned designer. Created in 1929 for the Barcelona International Exposition, it was intended to grace the German pavilion as a throne for the visiting Spanish monarchs.

The design of the Barcelona Chair draws inspiration from the classic folding chairs of antiquity, reimagined in a contemporary aesthetic. Its polished stainless steel frame and hand-stitched full-grain leather cushions exude understated and timeless luxury. This fusion of minimalist elegance and revolutionary functionality has made the chair a global icon, cherished in both residential interiors and public spaces.

Since Knoll acquired its production rights in 1953, the chair has been crafted to rigorous standards. Each piece is meticulously produced, with carefully selected materials ensuring exceptional comfort and long-lasting durability. The Barcelona Chair continues to symbolize refinement, perfectly embodying its creator's motto: "Less is more."

The chair is not just furniture but a functional work of art, a testament to 20th-century modernism that remains as relevant today as it was nearly a century ago.

Barcelona Chair
An Icon of Timeless Design

The Barcelona Chair, with its clean design and artisanal craftsmanship, is much more than just a chair. It is a statement of style, a symbol of timeless modernism that transcends eras and trends. Its minimalist design, paired with premium materials, makes it as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional.

The user experience is flawless: its low seat and ergonomic cushions provide remarkable comfort, whether for daily use or as a centerpiece in a reception space. Every detail, from the elegant curve of the stainless steel to the hand-stitched leather, reflects meticulous attention to quality.

However, its high price clearly positions it as a luxury product reserved for discerning and informed clientele. Despite this, its iconic status and longevity make it a worthy investment for design enthusiasts and admirers of timeless furniture alike.

A must-have for anyone seeking to add sophistication and prestige to their interior.
