Knoll Mies Van Der Rohe MR Side Chair
Best iconic seating for discerning design enthusiasts.
The Knoll MR Side Chair, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, is a testament to modernist furniture design. Originally conceived with a bent-steel cantilevered frame, this chair features a gracefully curved base that enhances elasticity and prevents material fatigue. The woven rattan seat is handwoven onto a polished chrome frame and protected by a clear lacquer finish, requiring regular maintenance to prevent drying. This iconic piece, part of the Knoll MR Collection, represents an early exploration of tubular steel in furniture, inspired by Bauhaus principles and 19th-century rocking chairs. It is Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified®.
