Reintroduced in 2018, the MR Chair with a rattan seat expands the Knoll MR Collection, which represents some of the earliest steel furniture designs by Mies van der Rohe. The frame material was inspired by fellow Bauhaus master Marcel Breuer, while the form is thought to be a modern derivative of 19th century iron rocking chairs.
