Weber\u003c\/strong\u003e — the Art Deco tubular steel aesthetic that defined American modernist seating in the 1930s, here in an intact upholstered example from a distinguished Cleveland estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKarl Emanuel Martin \"Kem\" Weber (1889–1963) was among the founding figures of American industrial and furniture design. His tubular chrome seating vocabulary — characterized by geometric precision, cantilevered or structurally expressive frames, and the honest use of industrial materials — influenced a generation of American furniture manufacturers and remains among the most collected American design of the 20th century. \"Weber Style\" pieces were produced throughout the 1930s and 1940s by commercial manufacturers working in his idiom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis settee is notably intact: the original vinyl upholstery remains in place, making it a more immediately presentable piece than the bare frames in the Weber suite from the same estate. The relatively shallow depth (21\") suggests a lobby, entry, or corridor settee format — designed for architectural settings rather than relaxed lounge use. The chrome tubular frame is in estate condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e H: 35\" × W: 42½\" × D: 21\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tubular chrome steel frame, vinyl upholstery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e K.E.M.
