6 cantilever chairs Baumann Halfa 70s

Set of 6 halfa chairs, an exclusive of the baumann firm created in 1970. On the principle of cantilever chairs (cantilever) initiated by mart stam or marcel breuer, its architecture depends entirely on the physical properties of the materials in which it is made; we join here the technical prowess of the partially curved wood (dossier, footing), which also consists, as for chair No. 14 (created by tuna) or the chair called "corbusier" (created by kohn) to design a seat in a minimum of key elements for a clean shape. Launched at the same time as the seagull and albatross chairs whose originality lay mainly in the "artistic" form of the moulded veneer back, halfa - a chair totally design, technical and more futuristic than avant-garde - has enjoyed a more "selective" popularity that explains its rarity today in the vintage market. With the original all-wood version (existed with a trimmed or painted seat, or often repainted ...), we are as close to the essence of the model --- very good condition of the lot in its juice of find, robust structures, beautiful original blonde patina, some usual traces of use on the seats, two with 1 or 2 small cracks but superficial (not crossing), no weakness in the veneers --- height 75 cm - sitting 44 cm. Seat height 44 cm. --- delivery ensured all France, professional service with invoice.
