About the Item
Set of 2 SE 18 folding chair, designed by German architect Egon Eiermann in 1952.
Initially created for communal spaces such as auditoriums and churches, the chair is celebrated for its ingenious combination of functionality and elegance. Crafted from solid beech wood and molded beech veneer, the SE 18 is lightweight yet robust, featuring a folding mechanism that allows for compact storage without compromising its structural integrity.
The SE 18’s significance in design history was cemented when it was included in the Museum of Modern Art’s (MoMA) collection in New York in 1953, a testament to its groundbreaking design. Eiermann’s work also featured prominently at the World Exposition in Brussels in 1958, further solidifying its international acclaim.
The chairs have been fully restored to give them another few decades at least. We restored the wood very nicely by laying in new veneer where it was needed. The chairs are very smooth now because after that we sandpapered them and lacquered them twice. One broken hook on the back but hardly visible as you can see on the pictures. They are ready for the future and ready to be installed. The construction is still fully intact and functioning. The small repairs are visible but they add to the circular thought of tender loving care and making things nice again.
(The price is already very good so no more negotiating...)
