Marcel Breuer Wassily Chair

The Wassily Chair, also known as the Model B3 chair, was designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925-26, the chair was not designed for the painter Wassily Kandinsky who was a fellow faculty member at the Bauhaus. However, Kandinsky had admired the completed design, and Breuer fabricated a duplicate for Kandinsky's personal quarters. The chair became known as "Wassily" decades later, when it was re-released by an Italian manufacturer who had learned of the anecdotal Kandinsky connection in the course of its research on the chair's origins.
The Modern Classics reproduction of this chair features a polished chromed frame and aniline dyed leather seat.
