Pair of Knoll Style Chrome Cantilever Armchairs, c.2000's

Description: This pair of Knoll-style cantilever armchairs by Martin Brattrud Inc. combines classic Mid Century Modern influence with streamlined construction dating to the 2000's. Each chair features a continuous chrome frame that forms the cantilevered base and gracefully curved armrests, creating a light and architectural silhouette. The chairs retain their original fabric upholstery, providing a soft contrast to the polished metal framework while preserving their original character. Presented in Original Condition, the pair has been carefully inspected by our studio for stability, secure construction, and overall functionality. Their clean geometry and comfortable proportions make them versatile seating for dining, office, or contemporary living spaces.

Fun Historical Fact

Cantilever seating became an important part of modern furniture design after early 20th-century designers began experimenting with tubular steel as an alternative to traditional four-legged construction. The absence of rear legs gave these chairs a visually lighter appearance while allowing the metal frame itself to become a defining design feature. This approach remained influential throughout the Mid Century Modern era and continued to inspire furniture manufacturers well into the 21st century. Martin Brattrud's long association with American contract seating reflects the enduring appeal of clean lines, durable materials, and functional modern design.
