Description
Ernst Martin Dettinger, "6057" Ash Chairs, Germany, 1950s
The perfect pair of side chairs to use at a desk, in a hall, or at your dining table! The Filigree chairs were designed by Ernst Martin Dettinger exemplify the great craftsmanship of mid-century German design. They are made of high-quality materials and offer both elegance and comfort.
The seats were recently recovered in a stunning and soft beige herringbone wool suiting fabric by Holland & Sherry.
The underside of the chairs bare embossed numbers in a few locations as well as an old Abb's auction tag. Additionally, on one of the chairs, the wood seat framing below bares the pencil-signed name of Danish architect "Hans Wagner," who is one of the most prolific furniture designers of all time.
