This exceptionally rare Model 430 chair, designed by Verner Panton for Thonet in 1967, stands as a testament to the designer’s early exploration of clean geometries and industrial elegance. Far from his exuberant plastic forms, this chair reveals Panton’s more restrained modernist language — executed with precision and quiet sophistication.
This exceptionally rare Model 430 chair, designed by Verner Panton for Thonet in 1967, stands as a testament to the designer’s early exploration of clean geometries and industrial elegance. Far from his exuberant plastic forms, this chair reveals Panton’s more restrained modernist language — executed with precision and quiet sophistication.
The chair features a chromed tubular steel frame supporting a sculptural, oval backrest and round seat, both upholstered in their original olive green velvet, adding a rich tactile dimension. The proportions are crisp, the silhouette graphic — yet comfort is never compromised.
Produced for just one year, the Model 430 is among the rarest of Panton's creations. Its limited production and subtle refinement have made it a coveted collector’s item, especially in original upholstery and preserved condition. It also showcases Thonet’s legacy of pushing innovation in tubular steel furniture, continuing the Bauhaus tradition into the 1960s with this highly architectural collaboration
