Description
Breuer chrome or brass frames are two distinct finishes that define Marcel Breuer’s classic 1928 Cesca chair design. Chrome’s clean, reflective look works well in modern or industrial spaces, and brass has a warmer, vintage tone that complements more traditional interiors.
Either option comes on the same tubular steel frame inspired by bicycle construction and a cantilever base that eases slightly under weight for greater comfort and durability. Seats and Stools carries both replacement frames and complete chairs.

FAQs
What is the difference between Breuer chrome and brass frames?
Breuer chrome frames have a bright finish that stays consistent over time. Brass frames start with a golden tone, but develop a darker patina as they age. Both use the same strong, durable tubular steel core.
Are Breuer chairs available with both chrome and brass frames?
Yes, we stock complete Cesca chairs with either chrome or brass Breuer chair frames. Replacement bases can also be purchased separately. That way, you can match existing pieces or create a mix of different metals.
Are Breuer brass frames solid brass or just plated?
Most brass frames use brass-plated tubular steel construction, so you get a lightweight and affordable frame in a warm color with a patina effect.
How do I clean and protect Breuer chrome or brass frames?
Wipe chrome finishes with a damp microfiber cloth, and be sure to dry immediately. For brass finishes, use a gentle brass cleaner or lemon juice and baking soda to remove tarnish. Then, rinse and dry.
