Inspired by the curving handlebars of the Adler bicycle, the Wassily’s chrome-finished tubular steel frame is seamless in its assemblage. The design’s seating surfaces – cowhide leather, belting leather, or canvas slings – maintain their crisp tautness for decades. Named for Wassily Kandinsky, the father of abstract painting and a colleague of Breuer's at the Bauhaus, the Wassily Chair is a symbol of the industrial heroism and engineering invention of the early 20th century. Made in Italy.
