The Wassily Chair, also known as the Model B3 chair, was designed by Marcel Breuer. In 1925 he was director of the wood workshop at the Bauhaus in Dessau. The B3 chair became a mass product in the sixties after Dino Gavina in 1962, after having met the Hungarian designer in New York, had convinced him to re-edit the tubular chair. When Gavina learned that Kandinsky had asked that the first specimen be destined for the living room of her apartment, she decided to produce it with the name Wassily. the chair is one of the major design icons of the twentieth century and is present in many museums in the world.
The name of the item is used to describe the product as an inspiration and it can not be considered as an original piece.
