These chairs have more appeal than just "Art Deco chairs" because Bruno Paul, Hellerau, and the model number are the real selling points.

Product : Set of six dining chairs from the 345 dining room series, designed by Bruno Paul for Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau, 1935.

The chairs are made of ash and exhibit Bruno Paul's characteristic combination of functional construction, balanced proportions, and understated elegance. Slender, slightly splayed legs and gently curved back frames give the chairs a light and decidedly timeless appearance.

The seats and backrests are fully upholstered in a light-colored, subtly textured fabric. The upholstery was executed with meticulous craftsmanship and professional skill. Based on current knowledge, it cannot be definitively determined whether the existing back upholstery is original or has been professionally altered or renewed over time.

This model belongs to dining room set 345, which Bruno Paul designed in 1935 for the Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau. The set is documented in contemporary catalogs and in Bruno Paul literature; comparable ensembles of the set have also been found with upholstered chairs. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
