The Michael Thonet designed No. 14 Bentwood Stool is modeled after one of the most famous chairs of all time.  The No. 14's simple elegance and modest creation from a handful of bentwood pieces have become legendary worldwide.  This A14 Bentwood Stool is manufactured at a factory utilizing handcraft techniques originated by Michael Thonet. The No. 14 bentwood stool was originally created in Thonet Boppard, Germany workshop in 1855.  The mass production of the Michael Thonet designed  14 Bentwood Chair has just celebrated its 150th year of manufacturing.
In the 1830s, Michael Thonet started experiments with bent veneers in an effort to reduce the number of separate pieces of wood being used in bentwood chairs.  These early techniques were successful in reducing the number of pieces in bentwood chairs from 10 to 5.  Further reduction became the focal point of Michael Thonet's work.
Michael Thonet stands out as a designer and pioneer both in mass production and in design, as he artistically explored the new forms and unique qualities of his newly invented technique. Remarkably few changes have been necessary over the last 150 years. The factory still follows the 19th-century production methods developed by Michael Thonet to produce stylistically accurate, handsome, and sturdy bentwood chairs, stools, tables, and accessories. Today the  No. 14 Bentwood Stool is widely used in cafes, restaurants, offices, and homes.
