WOW, this is it! The ultimate dining set by Warren Platner for Knoll.
Designed by Warren Platner, this collection is an enduring icon of 1960s modernism. Platner’s vision of creating an architectural balance between interior and exterior space comes to life in the crafted steel bases, which consist of hundreds of precisely welded rods. Some of the designs in the collection required over a thousand welds to complete the sculptural bases, which firmly support the upholstered seats and create an intriguing play of light and space.
The design of this iconic furniture series is characterised by the repetition of refined vertical steel wires, which together create a striking, sculptural design. This distinctive style creates a timeless, refined look that exudes both elegance and technical craftsmanship. A true classic, without a doubt.
Since its introduction, the collection has remained in continuous production, underscoring the enduring popularity and collector value of this mid-century modern style. Platner's influence extends beyond furniture; he also designed prominent interiors in New York City, including the Ford Foundation headquarters and the original Windows on the World restaurant, once located on top of the World Trade Center.
This particular set dates back to the 1980s and is in beautiful condition. The chairs have been reupholstered in a beautiful blue colour, making them ready to last for generations.
TOP ITEM! Price is for the chairs and table.
