Hans Bellmann for Strässle Söhne & Co — ‘Sitwell’ Easy Chair, ca. 1955
A sculptural and exceptionally rare example of Swiss post-war modernism, designed by Hans Bellmann (1911 – 1990) — architect, Bauhaus graduate and former collaborator of Mies van der Rohe.
Created in a time of reconstruction and experimentation, the Sitwell Chair embodies Bellmann’s search for structural lightness and human warmth. The organically moulded shell, executed in fiberglass-reinforced polyester, floats on a minimal black-enameled steel frame. Its wide, embracing silhouette and precise geometry illustrate the designer’s architectural rigor and sensitivity to comfort.
This particular piece stands out through its striking black-and-white plaid upholstery, enhancing the rhythmic curves of the form and underlining Bellmann’s fascination with visual balance.
Manufacturer: Strässle Söhne & Co, Switzerland
Period: ca. 1955
Dimensions: approx. 84 H × 93 W × 79 D cm (seat height 36 cm)
Materials: Fiberglass-reinforced shell, steel frame, textile upholstery
Condition: Excellent vintage condition; structurally sound with minor traces of age.
A museum-worthy statement of Swiss modernism — elegant, rare, and deeply human in its design philosophy.
From a private European collection.
