(Attrib.) Cor Alons (Nl 1892-1967) or Jan Le Cointre.
Oak wood. Restored/ with later upholstered drop in seats. Circa 1920s. No makers markings.
A pair of high quality Dutch Art Deco, Haagse School /stijl armchairs. These chairs could work well as two side chairs but would work equally well as desk chairs.
The design is attributed to the Dutch interior architect and designer Cor Alons. Alons was one of the architects of the Dutch Art Deco movement we now refer to as the ‘Haagse School, or style’. These designers were distinguished from other country’s styles by the application of a sober and cubist language with the intention of achieving a fine balance of form and weight; In this they were especially influenced by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright.
These striking chairs are constructed from solid oak and with the typical straight high back coloured in a contrasting black.
Price: 3.750 euro (x2) or 1.900 (per piece)
