As promised, the Post this week will feature Thonet bentwood furniture. This is presumably very out of fashion at the moment, as is all ‘brown’ furniture – but still beloved by us at Persephone Books and indeed inspirational. We even sell a poster of all the bentwood furniture in stock in 1907. This is an earliere copy in the V and A, it was made for the American market, but  is very similar to the one we sell.
