Description

The B1 stands stable on three legs, a backrest can serve as a shelf, and changing the sitting position is encouraged by the shape and fabric pattern. The detailed design of the chair with tapered legs and gentle transitions, for example in the backrest, emphasizes how far the B1 is from bricolage - the individual act between improvisation and makeshift - and has been developed into a formally and functionally harmonious solitaire.

B1 was designed by Stefan Wewerka who is considered one of the most versatile artists who fits into no box and worked and taught in all areas of fine art and design. Stefan Wewerka was the son of the sculptor Rudolf Wewerka and came from a traditional family of artists that can be traced back over many generations.

What should I expect when ordering an item with lead time?

Estimated lead times are shown under "Delivery", above. Read our shipping policy to learn more.

Lead times are estimated based on previous production times from our manufacturing partners, but lead times can change depending on availability and circumstances outside of Rarify's control.

For example: if purchasing an imported or made-to-order product, international shipping and import times depend on many factors. This includes US customs operations, global trade circumstances, and production facilities in other countries.

We will try to fulfill your order as quickly as possible. Our international freight forwarding partners help to take burden off of you during the process of importing; we appreciate your patience while your order is fulfilled.

Purchasing made-to-order is one of the most responsible ways to purchase, as it helps prevent furniture waste on our planet.

Vintage items are typically in-stock in the USA and ready to ship once purchased.

Do you deliver to NYC?

Yes, in-stock items can often be delivered to NYC quickly by our skilled couriers. Pieces are delivered by hand to your residence. This typically takes 1-2 weeks for items stocked at our warehouse in PA.

What is Freight shipping?

Freight shipping is how most furniture is shipped: secured by hand on a pallet and transported on a truck.

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.

Freight shipments can take longer and are more costly than regular mail, but help to prevent damage to furniture during delivery.

Rarify's entire collection is evaluated by credentialed experts for authenticity. We strive to only list an item for sale if we're certain it's authentic. Our team reviews every piece.
