Elevate your space with one of the most iconic furniture designs of the 20th century—the Marcel Breuer Wassily Chair (Model B3). Originally designed in 1925 at the Bauhaus, this revolutionary club chair redefined modern seating by stripping away traditional bulk and replacing it with a sleek, skeletal structure of tubular steel and suspended leather. The result is a timeless statement piece that blends art, architecture, and function.
Marcel Breuer, widely regarded as a pioneer of Modernism, was an architect, educator, and furniture designer whose work helped shape contemporary design. His groundbreaking No. B3 chair—later known as the Wassily Chair—was originally created for artist Wassily Kandinsky’s residence at the Dessau Bauhaus. The chair ultimately took on Kandinsky’s name and became one of the most celebrated examples of Bauhaus innovation.
Produced in collaboration with master craftsman Karl Koerner at the Junkers workshops in Dessau, the design evolved over several years through Breuer’s work with Standard-Möbel and later Thonet. The final form remains a defining symbol of modernist design: minimal, functional, and unmistakably elegant.
Expertly crafted in Italy, this version honors the original Bauhaus vision with premium materials and meticulous attention to detail. A polished chrome-plated tubular steel frame provides strength and visual lightness, while black hide leather forms the seat, backrest, and arm supports—delivering both comfort and architectural sophistication. Welded and polished end caps complete the clean, refined aesthetic.
Perfect for modern living rooms, design-forward offices, galleries, and luxury interiors, the Wassily Chair is both a functional seat and a collectible design icon.
