Instead I found a very interesting German Language site of a Swiss Thonet afficionado Dieter Staedeli.

Paris Antique Shop "Au bon Usage" rooted in Thonet (Video)
Paris Antique Shop Au Bon Usage has strong Thonet roots as it is specialized in Thonet for over 25 years. [Update but it seems having closed shop somewhere in the 20ies]

Wearable Chairs: Pret-a-Thonet
Argentinean Sculptor and designer Pablo Reinoso has designed the Thoneteando series of sculptured chairs based on old Thonet chair designs which he gave a twist.
Pret-a-Thonet is a metaphor for chairs you can wear or wearable chairs.
For the first time they appeared on a catwalk as part of the 2007 Autumn / Winter fashion show of David Delfin.
For the second time they will appear in the presentation of the Spring / Summer Fashion collection of Martin Churba, titled Tropico, on August 21, 2007 in Buenos Aires, Palacio del Correo Central, Samiento 151.
