Thonet Chair 214

Thonet bentwood seating for shared spaces

The Thonet 214 family is a collection of four-leg chairs for businesses furnishing meeting areas, dining spaces, reception zones or hospitality settings. Its bentwood construction offers a distinct wood-based look, while the choice between an upholstered and an unupholstered model helps you match seating to the character and practical needs of a room.

For a consistent furniture plan, consider where the chairs will sit, how often they will be used and whether upholstery is important for the space. The family includes two models: the 214 M and the 215 P.

Compare the 214 M and 215 P

The 214 M has a beech wood frame with a clear lacquer finish and no upholstery. Its listed dimensions are 43 × 52 × 84 cm. The 215 P is an upholstered four-leg bentwood chair with a beech frame, making it an option when you want a softer seat presentation.

Upholstery and colour choices may vary by model. Check the available configuration for each chair before planning a full order, especially if you need a coordinated finish across a larger space.

Choosing chairs for your project

Start with the role the chairs need to play. The unupholstered 214 M may suit spaces where you prefer the visible beech frame and a straightforward, consistent seating style. The upholstered 215 P offers a different look and feel for rooms where a covered seat better fits the interior scheme. Both belong to the same family, so you can compare their forms while keeping the broader design direction aligned.

Think about how the chairs will be arranged and moved. In a meeting room, consider the number of seats, table dimensions and clearance needed for people to sit down and stand up comfortably. For dining or visitor areas, look at how the chair finish works with nearby furniture and the overall level of formality. These practical checks can help narrow your selection before you confirm quantities.

Upholstery, finish and fit

Choose the seat treatment

The family includes an unupholstered option and an upholstered option. Fabric and leather are listed as upholstery materials for the range, but the specific material and colour should be confirmed for the model you select. Available colour choices in the collection data span neutrals and brighter tones. Use those choices to coordinate with your existing palette, and verify the actual options shown for each chair rather than assuming every colour applies to both models.

Check dimensions and room requirements

The listed 214 M measures 43 cm wide, 52 cm deep and 84 cm high. Use these measurements to check table spacing, circulation routes and storage plans; do not assume the 215 P has identical dimensions. The collection data lists a maximum load of 135 kg. Confirm the relevant model details and any configuration-specific information when reviewing your project requirements.

Plan the next steps

Before choosing, compare the two models side by side and note which details matter most: upholstery, colour, frame appearance and fit within the room. If you are furnishing multiple areas, decide whether a single model will create a consistent look or whether different versions make sense for different uses. Also check the warranty and product information provided with the selected configuration; the collection data lists a two-year warranty.

Myntwork offers these Thonet chairs on a monthly lease, which can be considered as part of a broader workplace or hospitality furniture plan. Review the available models and options, confirm quantities and dimensions for your layout, and then assess whether leasing suits your project. Product availability and configuration details should be checked for the specific chair you intend to select.
