Description

Brno Chair is inspired by Mies Van der Rohe and created according to "cantilever" design, which is a chair with two curved tubes that stand directly on the floor creating a seat without the rear legs.
The dynamic and elegant line of Brno Chair is composed of a single C-shaped structure made of chromed steel. This model has been designed in 1929 to furnish Tugendhat Villa in Brno (Czech Republic); this dwelling has been inserted in 2001 in UNESCO list as World Heritage Site.
Brno Chair has been in production since 1930 and it has become an iconic piece of design history.

Materials Specifications
Calf Leather: bovine leather coming from European and extra European slaughters, chrome tan, dyeing according to EEC rules, average measure m² 4/5 and thickness 0,9/1 mm. Calf leather or contract leather is a corrected grain leather. It has a very competitive price, it's fairly soft to the touch and long lasting. Calf leather is a material with an excellent value for money.
Full Grain Leather: bovine leather coming from European and extra European slaughters, chrome tan, dyeing according to EEC rules, average measures m² 4/5 and thickness 1,4/1,6 mm. Grain leather is still corrected grain but with a higher thickness than calf leather. This guarantees a longer duration and resistance. This leather surface is generally a little bit coarser to the touch compared to other kind of leathers.
Aniline Leather: bovine leather coming from European and extra European slaughters, chrome tan, dyeing according to EEC rules, average measure m² 4/5 and thickness 1,1/1,2 mm. Aniline leather is the most valuable leather used in the furniture sector. The superficial grain is natural and without corrections, it's also possible to catch a glimpse of the leather pores, veins and lines; as a matter of fact the surface is not always homogeneous as in full grain or calf leathers. Aniline Leather also results very soft to the touch.
