Description

Set of 6 bent wood armchairs, model Wien, by Gemla, 1980sSet of 6 bent wood armchairs, model Wien, produced by Swedens premium bentwood manufacturer Gemla in the 1980s. The model is from the Gemla archives from 1907 but is based upon the Thonet model no 18 with armrests. Original white painted frames with newly upholstered seats in a grey fabric. The frames have patina in form of a bit of flaked and worn paint but nothing that really effects the appearance in the bigger picture and more so ads to the look.

But the frame underneath the table top has a portion on the short sides that has been reduced to make a grip friendly area if you want to move the table around
