Amsterdam School book shelf

Amsterdam School (Netherlands early c20th)

Circa 1920s.

An unusual expressionist form shelving unit. Manufactured circa 1920s from solid oak. The crystalline form makes clear references to the speculative organic forms utilised by Dutch designers during the period prior to the stricter forms of modernism that emerged shortly afterwards with De Stijl.

Price: 1,600 euro
