Mies Van Der Rohe in collaboration with architect Lilly Reich, designed the chair in 1929 and was inaugurated by the Royal Highness at the International Exposition in Barcelona, Spain. The Egyptian folding chair use by the pharaohs and Romans during those times was their inspiration in creating the Barcelona Chair. It was redesigned in 1950 when they replaced the bolted frame with one-piece of stainless steel for a more smother effect.

The Barcelona Chair, reproduced by Rove Concepts, is made from one piece of European aniline leather which adds beauty and comfort to the chair because it eliminates stitching and corner seams. The European aniline leather is also known for its durability and suppleness making it very a comfortable piece of furniture. The frame is made from modern steel chrome to add to the furniture’s durability, comfort and iconic beauty.
