Pepijn Fabius Clovis / studio (Nl.1996-Now)

Pepijn Fabius is a Dutch contemporary designer who makes furniture and objects which are on the edge of art and design.
Known for his use of ‘waste material’. These chairs are a good example of his design approach. The use of humble materials like left over wood was part of a project instigated by the designer at the start of the Covid years (2020/21). Imperfections are embraced, thus making each design unique – Some of the pieces are labelled by the designer.

Price (from left to right): 1.000 / 900 euro

Hendrik (Henk) Wouda (Nl 1885-1946)

Pander & zonen 1920s. Solid coromandel wood with velvet upholstery.

50cm wide x 38cm deep x 49cm high (seat height). Makers label to the underside.

A rare and important Dutch art deco stool by architect and furniture designer Henk Wouda. This stool would have been made as part of a special commissioned interior design.

After 1916 when Wouda returned from the war he established himself as an architect in Den Haag (The Hague) and a year later joined the renowned furniture firm H.Pander & Zn. It was there that he was given the freedom to develop his own monumental style inspired by the work of the American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Sleek, austere designs such as this stool are characteristic of this Hague Style also known as Hague Rationalism or the New Hague School.

The stool is a rare find especially as it is completely constructed in solid coromandel wood. The grey/green velvet fabric and upholstery is a later addition to the stool that is fully in keeping with the authenticity of the stool (horsehair filling).

Price: 5.200 euro

Gianfranco Frattini (Italy 1926-2004)

Cassina model 780/783 stacking tables. Circa 1960s-70s

76cm diameter x 19.5 – 34cm high. Each table has its original Cassina label to the inside.

Rare set of four nesting/ stacking tables that rarely come up for sale in this large and low size. This playful design tables each have a circular formica top that is black on one side and white on the other that allow for multiple set up possibilities as they can be adapted to any interior design.

The larger and lower scale of this set compared to the higher narrower versions gives the design more of a ’70s lounge feel to the design.

Price: 6.900 euro

Model ‘Amak’ lounge chair by Annie Hieronimus for Cinna 1983-86 (makers label to reverse).

A rare lounge chair designed by French designer Annie Hieronimus and executed by Cinna. This model of lounge chair very hard to find anywhere – it was only produced for three years between 1983 and 1986. Its remarkable look comes from the combination of soft folded leather that seems to bridge two large ballistic looking feet.
