Wassily

Wassily chair designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925 as a tribute to his friend Wassily Kandinsky in Germany, Dessau, where they worked together at the Bauhaus School. It is the first chair with chrome steel pipe structure and leather easy to produce in his seat. His inspiration comes from a steel model of bike. For those years, the German steel manufacturer Mannesmann had devised a process for producing seamless steel tubes, the first to allow the tubes to bend without cracking at the seams. This is how this technology is taken to handle the bike and then the structure of the chair and other furniture designed by Breuer.
