Set of 4 Wilkhahn Flexor armchairs and a coffee table by Georg Leowald

A set consisting of four Wilkhahn "Flexor" armchairs model 856-0 and a matching coffee table designed by Georg Leowald in 1954. The two black leather armchairs have already been reupholstered in the past. Both burgundy armchairs are in their original condition and should be reupholstered. The suspension integrated into the chair offers a unique seating experience. Excerpt from a text on the website of Wilkhahn (https://www.wilkhahn.com/blog/de/bauhausschueler/): "At that time, Wilkhahn was already working with designers committed to modernism, such as the architect Georg Leowald, who was in the Bauhaus tradition. Later he himself became a professor at HfG Ulm (1957-59). Leowald, for example, designed the innovative Flexor chair for Wilkhahn (1954) with a torsion spring made of fiberglass rods under the seat. Condition: see photos, state of use, vintage, a lot of rust on the metal frames, scuffs and scratches on the table, the 2 red chairs are to be reupholstered, restoration recommended
