Marcel Breuer Cesca Caned Side Chair from Knoll

Marcel Breuer Cesca Caned Side Chair from Knoll

A Bauhaus icon from MoMA’s collection for your home. 

Considered one of the world’s most iconic chairs—and an object in MoMA’s collection—the Cesca Caned Side Chair is distinguished by its graphic and revolutionary juxtaposition of industrial and natural materials: chrome-plated steel and wicker beech wood. Designed at the Bauhaus school in 1928 by Marcel Breuer, the chair boasts a comfortable cantilevered form that seems to float in the air. The tubular steel frame, a Breuer-Bauhaus signature, is inspired by a bicycle’s frame. Originally known as the B32, the chair was later renamed “Cesca” after Breuer’s daughter, Francesca. The chair’s manufacturer, Knoll, is represented in MoMA’s collection. The Cesca Caned Side Chair is made in the USA and comes fully assembled, measures 31.5h x 18.5w x 23.5”d and weighs 16lbs.
