History industrial chairs
Industrial chairs are very popular since 1920. Steel pipes were really important in this period, and they also made furniture from these pipes. During World War II the production was stopped for a while because they needed the factory to produce weapons. But shortly after World War II they started the production again. Nowadays there is still a big demand for industrial chairs. It's also very trendy to mix and match different styles to create your unique interior. Tip: choose one main style and add some special pieces of furniture like for example industrial chairs.
Various designs
There are a lot of different designs if it comes to industrial chairs. You have 4 leg chairs, 5 leg chairs, industrial stools, industrial bar stools and so on. You could say that there are a lot of similarities between these industrial chairs. Mostly they are made of metal, but often they use a wooden seat or something for a special touch.
In the beginning, when such chairs were produced, they didn't think about the practical part. But soon began pub bosses to complain that they couldn't stack the chairs, so they had to change something in their production process to fix this problem. They adapted the design of the industrial chair so it would be possible to stack them. But they also changed other things of the design, like for example if you look at the Tolix chair, you can see that there are holes intended to allow the rain to drain through the holes, so you can put them outside as well.
A well-known example of industrial chairs, are the Tolix chair and the Multipl's chair, robust metal chairs. Both chairs are similar, but still they are different. Beside the small differences in the design, you can stack the Multipl?s chair because of their hollow legs. What's also nice, is that you can find the industrial chairs in a lot of different colours, so it's fun to combine them. Every combination is a good combination!
