Bauhaus Tubular Chrome Cantilever Chair, Czechoslovakia, circa 1930

A refined Bauhaus tubular chrome cantilever chair dating to circa 1930, originating from Czechoslovakia. The chair embodies the progressive principles of interwar European Modernism, with a continuous tubular steel frame forming both the supporting structure and distinctive cantilever base. The absence of conventional rear legs creates the light, architectural appearance that made tubular steel furniture one of the defining innovations of the Bauhaus era. The sculptural frame supports a gently curved upholstered seat and separate shaped backrest. The contrast between polished chrome and the soft, light-toned upholstery emphasizes the chair’s elegant geometry while giving it a contemporary appearance. The chair has been professionally repolished and newly upholstered. The vintage chrome plating retains minor signs of use and age, preserving the authentic character of this circa 1930 piece. An attractive example of Czechoslovak Functionalist and Bauhaus-influenced furniture design, suitable as a dining, desk or occasional chair and equally effective as a standalone sculptural accent.
