Baumann is a slightly off the radar French producer just starting to gain traction in the market. Baumann was founded in 1901, by Swiss man Emile Baumann, in Colombier Fontaine, France. Baumann started producing a simple child’s chair but grew rapidly to be a large bentwood producer with showrooms all over France. In our view the chairs of the 50’s and 60′ are their best, beautifully made and designed. This is an unusual elegant model with a double rail back and a slight hint of a wavy line, slim and petite elegant chairs. We have cleaned them, that’s all. If you want an uber stylish chair that you won’t see often this will hit the spot. Seat Height 46cm
