HOT ! Michael Thonet No. 73 Bentwood Stool by Ton

The Michael Thonet No. 73 Bentwood Stool dates back to the mid-1800s.  This reproduction of the bentwood stool uses the traditional bentwood styles that one commonly associates with the designs of Michael Thonet.   

Though the invention of the bentwood technique should be attributed to the American Samuel Gragg, it was Michael Thonet who experimented with the technique to an extreme level and made the bentwood chair one of the great commercial successes of all time.  In an effort to reduce the number of pieces used in furniture construction, Michael Thonet developed techniques for bending wood on multiple planes.  The techniques led to the development of phenomenal chair successes, such as the legendary No. 14 and No. 18 bentwood chairs.
