B11 Chair

Jean Prouve

The B11 is a refined reissue of Jean Prouvé’s 1930s cantilever chair, produced in the 1980s by German manufacturer Tecta. This version features a sleek tubular steel frame paired with an elegant seat and backrest upholstered in white leather—lending the chair a clean, contemporary presence while preserving the integrity of its modernist roots. Originally conceived by Prouvé as part of his exploration into minimal, industrially producible furniture, the B11 embodies Bauhaus principles: functional clarity, structural honesty, and subtle sophistication.
