JS . THONET
A PERSONAL INTERPRETATION BY JIL SANDER
Jil Sander’s collaboration with Thonet is her first foray into the world of furniture design. 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. For the NORDIC line, the S 64 cantilever chair and the B 97 table set have been done in a warm, matt nickel silver finish. Marcel Breuer designed the S 64 in 1928, during his time in Berlin. The NORDIC reinterpretation of the S 64 features wooden elements with white pigmented oak and a seat and backrest in either leather upholstery or light-coloured canework.

Sander’s NORDIC line also features the B 97 table set – the perfect addition to the S 64 cantilever chair. The B 97 table set’s dimensions are reminiscent of Marcel Breuer’s B 9 nesting table. Its altered design, however, offers a practical advantage: the opening on one side allows the tables to be positioned over the edge of a sofa, armchair or bed. They can also be pushed into one another to save space. The tabletop is available in a matt marble glacier hue. These luxurious reinterpretations have been created using a holistic approach, underscoring the exceptional design of the original while sensitively elevating every last detail. All pieces in this collection feature Jil Sander’s engraved signature on the frame.
