1960S VINTAGE GOATSKIN WASSILY B3 CHAIR BY MARCEL BREUER FOR GAVINA

Marcel Breuer 'Wassily' chair, produced before 1968 in Italy by Gavina. Authentic and stamped. The chair body is an original frame and was restored in a beautiful thick coat of New Zealand exotic goat skin to add a luxurious, one of a kind, design and style. Excellent craftsmanship and finish.

The Wassily chair, also known as the Model B3 chair, was designed by Marcel Breuer in 1925–1926 while he was the head of the cabinet-making workshop at the Bauhaus, in Dessau, Germany.

After the War years, Gavina picked up the license for the Wassily, along with the Breuer designs previously sold by Standard-Möbel, Lengyel & Co., and introduced the more recognized Wassily version that replaced the fabric with black leather straps, though the fabric version was still made available. In 1968 Knoll bought the Gavina Group of Bologna. This brought all of Breuer's design into the Knoll catalog.

Chair is in good vintage condition and structurally sound. Slight patina throughout the metal frame. 

31" x 27.5" x 28.75 h / seat height 16"
