Antique chair signed Thonet Wojciechw XIXw
Nice pre-war wooden chair signed Wojciechw, the first Polish bentwood furniture factory *. It was founded in 1872 by Count Wojciech Polio on part of his land in Wojciechw. After the fire in 1900, which consumed almost all the property, the count moved the plant to Gomunic in the Piotrkwski poviat, where he had better access to the raw material and more convenient communication conditions (Warsaw-Vienna railway line). The factory settlement was also given the name Wojciechw. Unfortunately, in 1925 the factory collapsed and was taken over by Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego. In 1927, it was further sold to a new private investor, who went bankrupt after five years. In 1929 furniture from the Auction Society of Bent Furniture “Wojciechw” was still presented at the famous Universal National Exhibition in Pozna presenting the achievements of the reborn Polish State. It is officially assumed that the factory ceased operations in 1933.
