About the Item
Pair of Robert Haussmann for De Sede ‘DS-201’ Chairs in Tan Leather – 1957 Design, in original Condition
Designed by renowned Swiss architect and designer Robert Haussmann for the prestigious Swiss furniture maker de Sede in 1957. The ‘DS-201’ model features Haussmann’s iconic cube-like form, which has become a classic mid-century modern design.
The solid steel frames finished in gleaming chrome beautifully complement the time worn tan leather upholstery. Presented in completely original, unrestored condition, the supple tan patinated leather provides a wonderful authentic aesthetic that can only be achieved through time worn use.
Crafted in Switzerland in the 1960s, the exceptional De Sede quality is a testament to the maker of these enduring design pieces. These chairs exemplify Haussmann’s mastery of form and materials, striking a perfect balance between modern, cubic styling and ergonomic functionality. The gently curving, geometric backrests and seats envelop users in superb comfort and exceptional support. Importantly, the seat rests on a cantilever, heavy chrome base that gives the units a more open and transparent visual appeal.
This quality pair would complement any contemporary or mid-century inspired interior. Increasingly rare, especially in this tan leather. Don’t miss the opportunity to own these completely original Robert Haussmann design classics from period.
They are in good original condition, time worn marks and scuffs to the leather (see photos) which provides a lovely overall patina, we have purposely not restored the leather to keep its authentic colour and look (often leather pieces can be over restored and loose their authentic charm). The chrome bases are in excellent order with very few blemishes.

De Sede
A de Sede piece lends a strong personality to the room it occupies. One of the world’s most respected furniture design houses, de Sede’s quality Swiss craftsmanship has its foundation in a long history of making expertly designed saddles. Founded in 1965 to build on a successful family-run saddler’s workshop in Klingnau, Switzerland, de Sede now is a leading manufacturer of leather goods and furniture, including sofas, chairs and beds.
At the core of de Sede’s philosophy is a reverence for the complexity and beauty of handcrafted furniture in an age when mass-produced objects are the norm. Over the years, the atelier has built a name for itself in its modular furniture pieces, which are made using the highest quality leather upholstery. The sleek, elegant pieces incorporate functionality with beauty. Amongst their best-selling designs is the DS-600 introduced in 1972. Also known as the Non Stop sofa, it is a sensually curved, snaking modular sofa whose individual pieces can be zipped together to create multiple variations and arcs.
De Sede has collaborated with some of the world's finest design minds, enhancing the prestige and individuality of their products. Designers like Santiago Calatrava, Antonella Scarpitta, Stephan Hürlemann, Gordon Guillaumier and Philippe Malouin have all created pieces with the atelier. Ubald Klug’s 1974 DS-1025, also known as the Terrazza sofa, is an enduring favorite with its cascading levels of leather. In 2017, de Sede expanded its product line to include high-quality leather handbags, which are as thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted as its furniture. De Sede AG is now part of the Volare Group AG and continues to handcraft its fine furniture and other goods from its factory in Klingnau.
