Ottoman Barcelona Original Knoll - Black Leather & Chrome - Design 1929

■ AUTHENTICITY BY THE MANUFACTURER: THE KNOLL REQUIREMENT This ottoman is an original edition produced by Knoll, the only authorised publisher to manufacture furniture by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe according to the 1929 standards. The absence of a stamp on some vintage editions is compensated by irrefutable proof of manufacture: the "X" joint of the base is entirely ground and polished by hand for a perfectly smooth mirror finish, with no visible welds. This is Knoll's exclusive artisanal signature that guarantees the origin of this piece. ■ A STRUCTURE OF LEATHER AND STEEL The aesthetic of the Barcelona ottoman is based on a radical contrast. Its chrome-plated flat steel structure offers stability and timeless elegance. The generously sized seat is made of a high-quality black leather cushion. Each square of leather is manually assembled according to precise traditional tufting, providing firm comfort and perfect durability over time. ■ DETAILED TECHNICAL SHEET Publisher: Knoll (Original) Designer: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
