THONET chair • S 163 range
Elegant, comfortable and available in a variety of versions: the S 160 range was developed for furnishing event venues, canteens and residential-style contract areas. The chairs stack tightly (up to 17 units) and feature a connecting mechanism that links them together simply, securely, space-savingly and without tools (Thonet patent). With a low or high back and various upholstery options, the S 160 offers a broad range of applications. A variant with wooden chair legs (160) turns the popular multi-purpose chair into a residential-style chair for the contract sector, for example for cosy cafés. There is also a delicate and particularly comfortable bar stool (S 160 H) for the hospitality sector and for working at high tables.
The THONET S 163 chair stands on a chrome-plated four-legged frame made of tubular steel and carries a moulded plywood seat shell. It is offered unupholstered, with mirror upholstery on the seat, mirror upholstery on the seat and back, or fully upholstered. It is stackable. Plastic glides are included as standard; felt glides are available for an additional charge, as are further beech II stain shades.

Mirror upholstery: With mirror upholstery, only the inner side is upholstered — precisely the surface you sit and lean on. The back of the seat shell remains visible in wood or plastic. This keeps the chair light and delicate while noticeably improving seating comfort.
Full upholstery: With full upholstery, the seat shell is covered all round in fabric or leather, including the back. The wood surface is then no longer visible. This gives the chair a softer, calmer and more residential feel than the mirror-upholstered version.
Row connection: Chairs designed for row linking can be joined side by side into fixed rows of seating without tools. This is required wherever large numbers of people sit together: in halls, churches, canteens or conference rooms. The Thonet connector is patented and meets the DIN EN 14703 standard for row seating, including panic-release safety — in an emergency, the row can be cleared quickly and safely.
