These Thonet chairs number (18?) have a story: they furnished a famous tea room in Orléans. Covered with multiple layers of white paint, I carefully sanded them. Then protected by an undercoat, I painted them in shades of blue, pink and green and finally varnished them. They are in very good condition. My many photos should allow you to see everything. I changed the seat covering with a gray-blue upholstery fabric (no stains) and added foam discs for comfort. The seats are not fixed, which allows them to rotate and slow down wear. They have been with me for 25 years but I still love them as much! The manufacturing allows us to verify that they are indeed Thonet: 6 pieces of wood, 2 nuts and 6 screws are enough to obtain this emblematic chair. We can see a trace of a label on each chair but it has been torn off and covered in paint. Seat height 48.5 cm, total height 88.5 cm. Seat diameter 41 cm.
