The Cesca chair was designed by Marcel Breuer in 1928. The Cesca chair, named after his daughter Francesca, is celebrated for its innovative use of materials, featuring a cantilevered tubular steel frame with a cane seat and backrest. This design revolutionised furniture construction by integrating industrial materials into residential. Thonet was founded by Michael Thonet in the early 19th century, and is renowned for its pioneering work in bentwood furniture.

Thonet's acquisition of the Cesca chair marked a pivotal moment in modern furniture design. The chair's innovative tubular steel frame and cane seat appealed to Thonet's tradition of blending functionality with aesthetics. By leveraging its manufacturing prowess and distribution channels, Thonet successfully introduced the Cesca chair to a wider audience, solidifying its status as a modern design classic. Thonet's commitment to craftsmanship ensured that each chair remained true to Breuer's vision, further enhancing its reputation in the furniture industry.
