The palace of Maharajah Shri Yeshwant Rao Holkar Bahadur was located in far-away India, yet it was equipped with the latest in modern finesse from a western lifestyle. This included a billiard room and a bar in an avant-garde style where the walls shimmered blue and silver and stainless steel, lacquer and leather were the dominating materials. The bar stool designed by Eckart Muthesius for this place is even today, nearly 80 years later, a fascinating and individual design and could be placed in any stylish bar. A true modern classic never dies.
