Design Story

Bar stools in space, shape and metal - functional works of art

Primarily a sculptor Harry Bertoia created a series of seating furniture from filigree steel wire for the American manufacturer Knoll International in the 1950s. In addition to the Bertoia bar stool from 1952, these steel wire designs also include the Bertoia chair and the formally related Knoll Diamond armchair - all made of hand-drawn and hand-welded steel wire.

Light yet assertive - the Bertoia bar stools

Harry Bertoia had previously worked with metal in his sculptural works. From an artistic perspective, he thus described his furniture designs, similar to his sculptures, as "studies in space, form and metal". The luxurious Knoll Bertoia Bar Stool presents itself as a refined, high-legged object featuring a slightly curved, rounded seat shell. Whether with seat cushions, fully upholstered or without cushions, the Harry Bertoia stool is suitable as a light but elegant seat for the counter in both public and private areas.

Whether in a restaurant or a domestic kitchen...

... the Bertoia bar stools are unobtrusive and at the same time elegantly stylish
