The chair's radical cantilever construction, single-piece bent flat steel bar frame, and supremely refined proportions make it one of the defining objects of Modernism. It remains in production today by Knoll, but vintage examples — particularly those by the original American fabricators — are highly sought by collectors, architects, and institutions worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTreitel-Gratz\u003c\/strong\u003e was the finest metal fabrication workshop in New York, serving clients including Raymond Loewy, Donald Deskey, Isamu Noguchi, and Mies van der Rohe himself. The company fabricated Brno chairs for landmark interiors including the \u003cstrong\u003eFour Seasons Restaurant in New York City\u003c\/strong\u003e (1959), the most celebrated Mies-designed interior in America. Treitel-Gratz production chairs are considered more historically significant than later Knoll editions by serious collectors and design historians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set of 6 features \u003cstrong\u003epolished stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e flat bar frames in excellent structural condition.
