Mid Century D42 Rattan Cantilever Lounge Chair by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for Tecta, 1970s Germany – Bauhaus Design Classic
A true icon of modern design – the D42 cantilever lounge chair, originally conceived by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1927, returns as a timeless Bauhaus classic. Also known as the Weißenhof Chair (MR10 / MR20), this groundbreaking design was among the first to introduce the elegant, springy cantilever structure that revolutionized modern seating.
This 1970s Tecta edition faithfully carries the legacy of the original, combining innovation, comfort, and minimalist beauty. The sleek nickel-plated tubular steel frame creates a floating effect, while the handwoven rattan seat and backrest offer both durability and warmth. The armrests are carefully wrapped in matching cane, adding to its refined craftsmanship.
A perfect statement piece for any interior – whether modern, mid-century, or eclectic.
