Rare Pair of Mid-Century Model 515/F Bentwood Armchairs by Oswald Haerdtl for TON / Thonet – 1950s

An exceptional and highly collectible pair of Model 515/F Bentwood Armchairs, designed by the celebrated Austrian architect and modernist Oswald Haerdtl in the mid-1950s. Manufactured by TON (formerly the Czechoslovakian arm of the iconic Thonet empire), this particular armchair variant is a remarkably scarce find compared to the more common armless side chairs or the standard Model 1515.

Boasting a masterful display of mid-century organic design, these chairs combine striking, sculptural silhouettes with everyday functional comfort, making them a standout addition to any modern interior, study, or dining space.

Design & Features

  • The Silhouette: Features Haerdtl’s signature continuous-mold plywood backrest. Unlike the standard models, the 515/F presents a solid, beautifully flared back shell that highlights the rich, uninterrupted flow of the wood grain.
  • Sculptural Armrests: The defining feature of this rare model—stunning, deep-looping bentwood armrests that swoop seamlessly around the seat pan and affix elegantly to the outer edges of the backrest.
  • Stunning Contrast: Rested upon sleek, black tapered legs that provide a sharp, dramatic contrast to the warm timber tones of the upper frames.

Condition & Upholstery

This pair has been meticulously restored and professionally refinished to celebrate the natural character wear and patina of the timber. The drop-in seat pads have been newly upholstered in a premium, historically sympathetic mustard-yellow textile that offers a vivid pop of color, perfectly complementing the rich wood tones and black legs. The frames are structurally excellent, tight at the joints, and ready for immediate residential or commercial use.

Dimensions:

  • 62cm width
  • 50cm depth
  • 83cm height
  • 46cm seat height
