In 1861, a bent furniture plant was opened in Bystřice pod Hostýnem and today it is among the oldest in the world. It was no coincidence that its founder Michael Thonet chose this place surrounded by beech forests offering enough material for the manufacturing process.

TON continues to manually bend furniture in the same workshops where this technology has been in use since it was founded. In keeping with times, TON has moved the features of the unique wood-bending technique further more and mixed them with contemporary designers’ thoughts. TON’s furniture have become a connection of quality, innovative shapes and a legacy to the place that has learned to understand wood for generations.
