JS . THONET Edition

With the JS . THONET signature collection, she has taken the most famous tubular steel classics from the late 1920s and put her own stamp on them. In her two lines, SERIOUS and NORDIC, the designer has reinterpreted the iconic S 64 cantilever chair (Design Marcel Breuer, 1929/1930, artistic copyright: Mart Stam), adding an extra touch of elegance and class – with high-gloss lacquered wood details, refined tubular steel frames, and seats and backrests made of Viennese canework or leather in a nuanced colour palette. All pieces in this collection feature Jil Sander’s engraved signature on the frame.
