https://www.thehoarde.com/dealers/merchant-found1950's French Baumann Menuet Black Upholstered Dining Chair - Set Of Ten. Elegant beech dining chair made in France by the maker Baumann. Baumann is a slightly off the radar French producer just starting to gain traction in the market. Baumann was founded in 1901, by Swiss man Emile Baumann, in Colombier Fontaine, France. Baumann started producing a simple child's chair but grew rapidly to be a large bentwood producer with showrooms all over France. In our view the chairs of the 50's and 60' are their best, beautifully made and designed. This is the Menuet model, a classic stick back chair but made with the Baumann quality. The dished seat is incredibly comfortable and the proportions of the chair, and the elegant back shape, give the chair real character. We have cleaned them and reupholstered them in a Crib 5 black rexine. Stunning original patina. We service and wax each chair before they leave our workshop and we deliver chairs of excellent quality. Seat Height 48cm.
