Tolix is one of our all time favourite companies. In 1907 Frenchman Xavier Pauchard discovered that he could protect sheet metal from rusting by dipping it in molten zinc (galvanisation) and a few years later he set up his factory producing steel furniture. Tolix was the creator and founder of perhaps the most iconic café chair of all time, the Tolix model A, designed in 1934. Stunning chairs full of character, these are original A chairs originally painted white but expertly over sprayed in grey at some stage. The two tone effect is striking giving a rich finish. Our workshop has cleaned and serviced them, they are good to go. Listing is for one chair.
