Mies van der Rohe (attributed)
(German, 1886-1969)
Barcelona chair
Polished stainless steel, brown leather
Approx. 30" x 30" x 30"
Believed to be a Knoll production dating to about 1972 (an old piece of tape found inside one of the cushions has that date written in pencil).
Provenance: The collection of a Fortune 500 company.
Poor overall condition, though the steel frame is in good condition. Instead of a seat cushion, there are two back cushions present-- both cushions show some leather wear (mostly along the welting). The leather seat support straps have all either snapped or been otherwise reinforced with black duct tape along the front of the seat. A little bit of general wear to the polished steel.
