Excursions and Villa
Experience the story of a place where furniture has been made by hand-bending
wood since 1861.
An excursion into the history and future of bentwood furniture.
A technology that has stood still in time, surrounded by state-of-the-art machinery and countless pairs of hands that leave a piece of their many years of experience and a distinctive imprint. The sometimes unbelievable insights into manufacturing and the stories you take away from Ton will paint a complete picture behind some of the world's most famous chairs.
