All auctions / Furniture, Design & Mirrors / Knoll - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe - Stool - Barcelona stool - Calfskin
The Barcelona Stool (or ottoman), designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe together with Lilly Reich for the 1929 Barcelona World Exposition, is one of the undisputed masterpieces of 20th-century design. Designed as a complement to the famous armchair of the same name to receive the kings of Spain in the German Pavilion, it embodies geometric rigor, essentialism, and artisanal craftsmanship. Structure Material and finish: Flat drawn steel frame, welded in a single piece without visible joints and hand-finished in mirror-chrome. Shape: The interlaced X-shaped profile creates an elastic yet solid structure, with high-strength leather straps (fastened with metal rivets) supporting the cushion. Cushion and Upholstery Capitonné work: The cushion is made of individual pieces of leather cut and sewn by hand one by one, finished with buttons covered in the same leather. Padding: Expanded polyurethane foam of varying densities wrapped in polyester fiber, designed to maintain its original shape over time while ensuring support and comfort. Standard Dimensions (Knoll Production) Width: ~59 cm Depth: ~59 cm Height: ~39 cm Each original piece, produced exclusively by Knoll, bears Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s signature and the manufacturer’s logo hot-stamped on the steel frame.
