BR19 Breuer Dining Table

Designed in 1928, this table was added to the Thonet catalogue with the code B14. A larger version, made in Berlin in 1930, can be seen in a photograph of the interior of Boroschek’s apartment and in the Lewin house’s studio. The table was used several times in Harnischmacher’s house, Wiesbaden, in 1932. In this case, however, it can be seen how mass-production had required some simplifications, such as the joint of the corner, to the great disadvantage of the only formally relevant element.
