An exceptional set of four 'Kreuzschwinger' bar stools, originally conceived by German architect and designer Till Behrens in 1983 and produced by Schlobach in Germany during the early 1980s. This early production run is officially marked on the frame, featuring the maker's stamp alongside the Deutsches Reichsgebrauchsmuster registration number, with each piece individually numbered for authenticity. The sculptural silhouette relies on a sophisticated cantilevered X-brace engineered from polished stainless steel wire. This distinctive geometry provides a subtle, ergonomic spring action while maintaining a visually transparent, weightless profile that redefines modern seating. A masterpiece of postmodern and industrial design, it bridges rigorous engineering with minimalist elegance. Offered in very good vintage condition with minor traces of age-commensurate wear that enhance their authentic appeal. Listed individually, with a total of four pieces available to acquire as a cohesive set for a contemporary kitchen island or modern hospitality interior.
