Wiener Gebrüder Thonet Vienna Design, named after its original founder Michael Thonet in 1842, is a high-quality furniture company.
Michael Thonet is known for having revolutionised the traditional techniques of furniture design. Indeed, he abandoned the more traditional technique of glued lamellar wood and instead successfully developed mechanical steam bent process. Thanks to this innovation the production of wooden furniture on a larger scale became possible.
Nowadays, the brand imposed itself thanks to a smart mix of tradition and modernity. Beginning with the re-edition of Gebrüder Thonet classics, the brand then quickly expanded with contemporary and iconic designs.
