<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 326114, member: 6444&quot;]Quite right, I was researching Thonet a couple years ago and found a couple good books at my local library. Thonet has a long history and a long history of companies in the same area making copies of each other&#039;s bentwood furniture. At one point in the early 20th century several of those knockoff companies including the original Thonet were merged, but knockoffs continued to be made and still are. Plus there is also a Thonet USA which has different ownership starting mid 20th century or so if I remember correctly. Besides this early style dark bentwood, they also made a lot of innovative mid century design and I occasionally run into a nice mid century piece with a Thonet label.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
