  • Marcel Breuer Designed in 1926 by Marcel Breuer the Knoll 50LC Wassily Chair represents one of the major milestone events in furniture design; reducing the overstuffed sofas and chairs of the time to a simple skeletal frame with stretched cowhide slings forming the seat back and arm rests. When initially designed, the chair was at the cutting edge of design and manufacturing. The design only being possible due to the recent invention of seamless welded tubing. The Wassily chair was named after Breuer Bauhaus roomate Wassily Kandinsky.

    QUICKSHIP: Please note that only the following finish is available on quickship: cowhide black.
