Set of 2 Sevilla EXPO '92 chairs by FRANS VAN PRAET for Belgochrom (#35 & #36 /100)

This rare set of Sevilla EXPO '92 chairs represents a peak moment in postmodern Belgian design. Created by the renowned Frans Van Praet for Belgochrom, these pieces were originally commissioned for the Belgian Pavilion at the 1992 World Expo in Seville. They feature a sleek, perforated brass backrest that curves gracefully to meet the circular, velvet-upholstered seat and the patinated metal frame. These are not merely furniture pieces, but numbered artifacts of design history. Limited Edition: Only 100 chairs were ever produced in this version. Both pieces are signed and numbered by the designer, specifically marked as #35 and #36 of 100. They are preserved in perfect condition, maintaining their original structural integrity and finish. One chair still retains its original manufacturer label, a detail highly prized by serious collectors and archivists. Historical Context The 1992 Seville World Expo was a landmark event for international architecture and design. Van Praet’s work for the Belgian Pavilion was celebrated for its "Belgian DNA"—a mix of surrealism, functionality, and high-end materials. Owning a sequential pair of these chairs offers a unique opportunity to house a complete "set within a set" from this strictly limited run.
