The polished steel flat-bar cantilever frame creates the characteristic floating appearance that has made the Brno chair a fixture in serious modernist interiors since its introduction in 1929, conceived by Mies for the Tugendhat Villa in Brno, Czech Republic. The black upholstery on arms, seat, and back is clean and intact with no damage noted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLudwig Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969) is one of the towering figures of 20th-century architecture and design — a Bauhaus director, creator of the Barcelona Pavilion, and designer of the Seagram Building in New York. His furniture designs, produced in association with Knoll International, remain in continuous production and are among the most studied and copied works in the history of modern design. The Brno flat-bar chair — distinguished from the tubular version by its rectangular cross-section frame — is the more refined and architecturally precise of the two variants, and is particularly sought after by collectors of canonical modernist furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttribution note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This chair is attributed to the Brno flat bar design for Knoll on the basis of its form, dimensions, and construction. The auction house described it as \"we believe this is the Brno flat bar chair designed by Mies van der Rohe for Knoll.\" Paul recommends buyers review the photos and verify any markings in person.
