Set of Two Vintage Wassily / Model B3 Armchairs — Marcel Breuer, circa 1960s (Gavina / later Knoll International)
A striking pair of the iconic Wassily (B3) armchairs designed by Marcel Breuer—one of the most celebrated Bauhaus designs of the 20th century. Defined by its architectural, chrome-plated tubular steel frame and wide leather sling bands for the seat, back and armrests, the B3 remains a benchmark of modernist clarity: graphic, balanced and effortlessly timeless.
This set stands out for its collector appeal. The leather presents a deep dark-brown foundation with warm cognac/caramel highlights developed through age, use and light exposure. The arm straps and back band show particularly vivid tonal variation and beautifully expressive wear—creating a rich, lived-in surface that collectors and design purists seek. The “Marcel Breuer” signature is visible in the leather, as shown in the photographs.
The chrome-plated tubular frames retain a strong presence and a pleasing shine. As expected from a vintage pair, there are age-appropriate surface marks: fine scratches, small spots and areas of light pitting/oxidation in places. These details underscore the originality and period character while preserving the sculptural impact of the design.
Condition m
• Leather: patina with visible tonal shifts and wear; dark brown with warmer, lighter areas across the arms, back band and seat sling.
• Stitching / edges: normal age-related wear along seams and corners.
• Chrome: overall bright with light scratches and localized pitting/oxidation consistent with age.
Highlights
• Collector-grade vintage pair with strong character and presence
• Classic Breuer silhouette; “Marcel Breuer” signature visible in the leather
• Perfect as a symmetrical statement for a loft, gallery setting, executive office or refined modern interior
additional photographs available upon request. Shipping/white-glove courier options within the EU can be arranged.
