The round seat is available as a smooth moulded seat or in an upholstered version. The robust wood and resistant cover fabric make the 204 an everyday solid and sociable companion, whether at home or in restaurants. Wooden parts in stained beech. Seat with cane work, moulded plywood seat or upholstered and covered with leather or fabric. \*For seats that are subject to heavy use, a transparent and highly durable plastic mesh is available for mounting beneath the cane work. ![204 2](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/manufacturers/t/thonet/produkte/204/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/204-2.jpg)![Thonet 204 RH Buche schwarz TP29 DARK MELANGE FF 752](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/manufacturers/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/Thonet_204_RH_Buche_schwarz_TP29_DARK_MELANGE_FF_752.jpg)![Thonet Motel One Wien 05](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/Thonet_Motel-One-Wien_05.jpg) ![Thonet 204 RH Buche schwarz TP29 DARK MELANGE FF 764b low](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/manufacturers/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/Thonet_204_RH_Buche_schwarz_TP29_DARK_MELANGE_FF_764b_low.jpg)![204 3](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/manufacturers/t/thonet/produkte/204/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/204-3.jpg)![Thonet 204 Interieur 1](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_none/Thonet_204_Interieur_1.jpg) - Request a quote - [Manufacturer's Product-Info](http://en.shop.thonet.de/classics/range-204?a=526) - [Manufacturer's website](http://www.thonet.de/startseite.html) - [All products by Thonet @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/products/manufacturer/thonet) - [Thonet @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/manufacturer/thonet) Thonet Related Articles [INTERVIEWS Strong presence 4/7/2025 The internationally renowned fashion designer Jil Sander has reinterpreted Marcel Breuer's ‘S 64’ cantilever chair for Thonet. ‘Serious’ and “Nordic” are the names of the design lines with which she has given the tubular steel classic from the 1920s a new sensuality.
