S 243 chair, Thonet 2024

The S 243 is a stackable chair combining tubular steel and plywood, with subtle nods to Thonet’s heritage. The thicker rear legs - 25mm in diameter, inspired by Thonet’s cantilever classics - carry most of the weight and provide stability, while the slimmer front legs create an overall lighter chair, following a clear construction.
 
Material and Color
Moulded plywood seat and backrest, alternatively with fully upholstered seat with or without backrest upholstery. The tubular steel frame comes in a chrome or powder-coated in a range of colours.

Sizes
W 48 × D 52 × H 80 cm

Technical connecting elements have been reduced to a minimum: at first glance, only the rivets that connect the backrest to the back legs are visible. The result is a model that pays subtle homage to Thonet’s tubular steel history, a chair with a contemporary character, and a high recognition factor.
