An iconic pair of Barcelona chairs with matching ottomans by Mies van der Rohe for Knoll International, dating to circa 1988 and exemplifying one of the most celebrated achievements of modernist furniture design. Originally conceived in 1929 for the German Pavilion at the International Exposition in Barcelona, the design remains a benchmark of architectural elegance, combining sculptural form with luxurious materials and impeccable craftsmanship.
Each chair features a hand-polished chrome-plated steel frame with the signature intersecting X-form silhouette, supporting tufted white leather upholstery meticulously tailored into individual panels and secured with leather straps. The crisp white upholstery offers a striking contrast to the luminous steel frame, emphasizing the purity of line and restrained sophistication central to Mies van der Rohe’s design philosophy. Accompanying matching ottomans echo the same refined proportions and construction, completing the ensemble with both comfort and visual balance.
Elegant, timeless, and highly versatile, this distinguished set works beautifully in modern, minimalist, or architecturally driven interiors. A classic expression of 20th-century design history, seamlessly blending luxury, function, and modernist refinement.
Unmarked.
