For Sale: Pair of Original Vintage Bentwood Bistro chairs ?200


2 chairs, made in Poland, with the Latin motto "Semper Sursum" meaning "always aim high" printed on a label underneath.


The makers J & J Kohn were a leading Austrian manufacturer of furniture in Austria - Hungary. The company was founded in 1849 by Jacob and his son Josef.

Both seats have a wonderfully imbedded and incised design. The chairs are strong and balanced, no wobble or breaks. The screws are original and are tight and in perfect condition.


Excellent condition.


?200 for the pair


Collection in East Dulwich



PM me for further details

excuse me. No I was interested but the price put me off

I thought maybe u hadn't considered that ?200 was a v high price for two chairs

Authentic or not - and if they are second hand I think it's v highly priced

That is all


Good luck

Having being given the chairs by my grandmother who has sadly passed away, we have had them in our family for almost 100 years - the price is what the experts have estimated & I for one am not going to question their expertise.


Thanks for your interest

Still for sale;



For Roseigracex the expert:


Email from Thonet attached below, 300 Euros for a single chair :



Your chair has got the No. 118 and was produced from 1922 until 1935. The "Design" of the seat is especially beautiful and is only to be found on this model. The estimated collector's value is about 300?.

Best regards,

Anke-Maria Thonet

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
