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 50s and 60s are their best, beautifully made and designed. This is a classic elegant model in a clean and bleached blonde beech wood. Large comfortable bent back supports combine with elegant legs. 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.
