A highly attractive and authentic set of four vintage retro dining chairs dating from the 1970s with a distinctly Mid Century Modern aesthetic that recalls the style of Habitat furniture from the same era. These chairs were made in the former East Germany, as shown by the original stamp underneath, marked “Mart GDR,” and are a wonderful example of practical design combined with striking visual appeal.

Each chair is constructed from solid beech wood, a hard-wearing and sturdy material that gives them a robust and durable feel even decades later. The frames are painted white, and over time this paint has developed an appealing distressed patina, with areas of wear exposing the warm beech wood beneath. Any bare wood has been oiled with Danish oil. This gives them a charming, rustic vintage look perfectly suited to retro-inspired interiors or eclectic kitchen and dining spaces. Please ensure you take a good look at all of the images to check out the condition, they are all sturdy.

The seats retain their original upholstery, a fabulous striped woven fabric in warm 1970s tones of brown, gold, and cream. Three of the seats are in very good condition with no significant marks, while one chair has two visible marks on the seat, one light and one dark, as shown in the photos. To the front left of one seat, the fabric has been scuffed. Despite their age, the fabric overall remains very well preserved with no other rips, sagging, or excessive wear, making these chairs both highly usable and a nostalgic statement piece.

These chairs measure approximately 93 cm in height, with a seat height of 45 cm, a width of 42 cm, and a depth of 55 cm, making them comfortable for everyday dining or as occasional chairs in a living room, study, or creative studio.

Overall, this set is in good vintage condition with surface marks, scuffs, and paint wear consistent with age and use, adding character without compromising structural integrity. They are solid, practical, and ready to use straight away, or could be further restored or repainted if desired. These retro dining chairs offer a wonderful combination of functionality and genuine 1970s design flair, ideal for collectors, mid century enthusiasts, or anyone seeking unique seating to enhance their home.
