Set of Cesca Chairs by Marcel Breuer, 1962

Set of Four Cesca Chairs – Marcel Breuer, Italy, 1962
Lacquered wood, chromed metal, Memphis-style upholstery – Icon meets irreverence

This vibrant set of four Cesca chairs, originally designed by Marcel Breuer in 1962 and produced in Italy, reinterprets a modernist classic through a bold, postmodern lens. The iconic structure — featuring a lacquered wood frame and chromed tubular steel — remains true to Breuer’s revolutionary Bauhaus vision, while the newly upholstered 1980s Memphis-style fabric injects a playful sense of color and rebellion.

With dimensions of H 84 × W 47 × D 54 cm, these chairs offer ergonomic comfort and a striking visual presence. The expressive textile creates a dynamic contrast to the clean lines of the original design, making them ideal for interiors that celebrate bold individuality and historical layering.

Whether placed around a dining table or used as accent pieces, these chairs are a celebration of design evolution — merging the minimalist rigour of the 1960s with the exuberance of 1980s Italian postmodernism.
