Fischel was founded in 1871 by Czech born David Gabriel Fischel, a successful vegetable oil merchant, using the first hand knowledge of his eldest son who had worked in one of Thonets Czech factories. First production was made in Germany in Niemes near the Danube. Later production moved to France in Alsace and sales offices were opened in most major French cities as Fischel became a major chair producer. These chairs date from the 1950’s, a very classic shape with a stunning bleached light oak colour and character. We service and wax each chair before it leaves our workshop and we deliver chairs of excellent quality. Seat Height 47cm. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
