Description
This is an armless Cesca side chair, model 51C, originally designed by Marcel Breuer in 1928. The listed price includes one 51C chair, and we have seven available for individual purchase. These examples were manufactured by Knoll in 2019. The design features a tubular chromed-steel cantilever base, and has a molded plywood seat and back. Their upholstery is currently done in a contrasting blue and black combination.
