Vintage Industrial Wire Mesh Chair | Steel Mesh and Tubular Frame
A spare, graphic chair that carries the visual weight of post war industry without softness or apology.
Produced in continental Europe circa the 1950s, this utilitarian steel chair was designed for canteens, studios and civic interiors where durability, lightness and stackability mattered more than comfort or display. Welded wire mesh panels form the seat and back, paired with a tubular steel sled base and rectilinear geometry, placing it firmly outside domestic modernism and closer to factory and institutional design language. Unmarked as expected for the category, its surface wear and oxidation read as honest age rather than damage, giving the piece a quiet authority suited to gallery offices, artist studios or architectural interiors where material truth matters.
Measures: 40 cm W × 40 cm D × 78 cm H (Seat 44 cm H)
Conditioned for presence and atmosphere
