Each chair combines a polished chrome tubular-steel cantilever frame with black-finished wood frames and woven cane seats and backs. The original Knoll International label is present, confirming the manufacturer. This influential Bauhaus design contrasts industrial steel with traditional cane and remains one of the most recognizable modern chair forms. The set shows vintage wear, including surface wear to the black finish and chrome, along with significant broken and missing cane on the armchair back; the two side chairs appear substantially more intact. Sold together as a three-chair set and well suited for restoration, continued use, or a design-focused interior. Knoll currently identifies the Cesca as a Marcel Breuer design and continues to manufacture both side-chair and armchair versions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eEra\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nVintage, 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eStyle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nBauhaus \/ Modernist \/ Cesca.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eDesigner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMarcel Breuer.
