Backenzahn
Backenzahn
The original BACKENZAHN™ designed in 1996 by architect Philipp Mainzer is a modern design classic as well as an identifiable icon. Crafted in Germany, the stool (with shaped seat) or the side table (with flat top) is offered in oiled European oak or walnut. For its signature form and detail the centre of the tree is used. During the seasoning of the solid wood, the legs form their characteristic cracks, which make every stool unique.
NEW FOR 2026, AND THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY IS THE BACKENZAHN STEEL. CRAFTED IN FOLDED STAINLESS STEEL, IT CARRIES FORWARD THE DISTINCTIVE SILHOUETTE AND SCULPTURAL PRESENCE OF THE ORIGINAL. BACKENZAHN STEEL IS OFFERED IN POLISHED AND BRUSHED STAINLESS STEEL, POLISHED BRASS-PLATED, AND POWDER-COATED FINISHES IN VERMILION AND JET BLACK. SUITABLE FOR BOTH INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR USE.
