Cesca chairs, also known as Cesca-style chairs, are a type of modernist furniture design that has become an iconic piece of 20th-century design. They were created by the Hungarian-born American designer Marcel Breuer in the late 1920s. The name “Cesca” is derived from Breuer’s daughter’s name, Francesca. Cesca chairs are known for their minimalist and Bauhaus-inspired aesthetic. They represent the principles of the Bauhaus school, which emphasized functionality, simplicity, and the use of modern materials. Cesca chairs have achieved iconic status in the world of design and are considered classics of modernist furniture design. They are part of the permanent collections of many museums and are still in production by various furniture manufacturers.
