I was so excited when I saw these chairs! I was convinced that they were original ‘Ceska’ chairs designed by Marcel Breuer in 1928, convinced! They even had the ‘Made in Italy’ stickers underneath. Bad news: They are copies. Good News: They are very attractive and really well made copies. Made in Italy, in the 70’s.

I did quite a bit of research before reaching my conclusion so here’s a little history if you’re interested…

Breuer’s fondness for tubular steel and his knowledge of how to use it in chair construction was already illustrated in the Club chair “B 3” or Wassily chair introduced in 1925.
He designed the iconic cantilevered B32 chair in 1927. It was renamed the "Cesca" chair after Breuer's daughter Francesa. It was produced by Thonet, then Gavina(Italy), and later Knoll. The chair was never copyrighted because of a dispute over who invented tubular-steel chairs which may explain why so many “Breuer-like chairs” are available for purchase today.

There are 8 chairs in total. 6 are the very well made Italian chairs and the other two, whilst there is nothing wrong them are just not as nice – They must have been added to set at a later date and are from a different manufacturer, but perfect if you need to add a chair or two to your collection when you have extra dinner guests. I have priced them accordingly.
