No 19 Bentwood Chairs

ANGEL BACK chairs No 19 were made over a fairly long period. They appear in the 1885 Thonet and in the 1916 Kohn and 1915 Fischell catalogues. They are not in 1884 catalogue, however i have found it stated that 21948 were produced in 1885. Production continued after 1921 but do not know when it terminated.
C001 These chairs are from Josef Hofmann Succ factory Bielitz Austria so made after 1896. Before 1896 the company was Josef Hofmann with a different label, Hoffmann Succ was taken over by Mundus in 1907. The cane is as i bought them, some slight damage.

C002 This chair is not marked but by looking at the design of the back it can be seen to be made by Fischel. I have had it recaned.

C160 There are no marking on this chair, the back is joined to the seat by nut and bolt, so it could be made by J&J Kohn. The cane is new and is recessed so is this a clue to maker?
