Based on the draft acquired by the museum in 1939, WEINBAUM produces the anniversary edition with a tobacco-colored cover from fine Argentinean leather and a powder coated frame in elegant black. To mark its 80th anniversary - celebrating Ferrari-Hardoy's pioneering modernist vision to bold contemporary design - the chair is limited to an edition of 80. Each piece is numbered and comes with a comprehensive guide to one of the 20th century's most admired works of interior design.
WEINBAUM uses only premium materials for its special edition of the Hardoy Butterfly Chair. The Holstein cattle that is held at selected estancias throughout the provinces of Córdoba and Santa Fe feed during their two-year life exclusively on grass; meat and bone meal was outlawed decades ago. Untreated, all year round usable pastures and exceptional freedom (two cattle share a hectare of land) provide more than 3,000 calves, cows and bulls at our partner companies with excellent conditions. The result: Exceptionally durable leather whose soft touch will inspire you every day anew.
The anniversary edition of the Hardoy Butterfly Chair comes with a powder coated frame from stainless steel that is welded at four intersections. To emphasize the chair’s exceptional seating comfort, the covers are exclusively manufactured from vegetable tanned leather from cattle bare neck of the above-mentioned breed Holstein.
