Cabaret Fledermaus Chair by Josef Hoffmann, 1905

  • Designed By - Josef Hoffmann
  • When - 1905
  • Made From - Beech
  • Manufactured By - Wittmann
  • More Info - This chair was specially designed for the theatre cabaret ‘Fledermaus’ in Vienna 1907. There were two versions of the chair, one with a solid back and one with bars along the back, which was available with or without an upholstered seat. It was also available natural or painted. The chair is not particularly comfortable but it still became a classic and it shows Hoffmann’s style and unique features, such as the spheres under the seat, very well.
