1940's Tall Dark Oak Bentwood Dining Chairs - Set Of Six

About the Item

1940's Tall Dark Oak Bentwood Dining Chairs - Set Of Six. The process of steam bending beech to create elegant chairs was discovered and developed by Thonet, but when its patents expired in 1869 many companies including Fischel launched production. Fischel was founded in 1871 by Czech born David Gabriel Fischel, a successful vegetable oil merchant, using the first hand knowledge of his eldest son who had worked in one of Thonets Czech factories. First production was made in Germany in Niemes near the Danube. Later production moved to France in Alsace and sales offices were opened in most major French cities as Fischel became a major chair producer. These chairs date from the 1940's, a very classic elegant shape with a rich colour and character. We service and wax each chair before it leaves our workshop and we deliver chairs of excellent quality. The chairs are not stamped Fischel but we are confident they are. Seat Height 46cm. Workshop Report: Our workshop team inspect every product and carry out any needed repairs to ensure that everything leaves us serviced and maintained ready for many more years of life. All of our vintage products show the rich beauty and history of their life with the knocks and bumps of many years of use and we try to minimise restoration to keep every piece as original as possible.
