Gerrit Rietveld: "Red Chair" ORIGINAL VINTAGE CLASSIC

Note: The so-called “Red (or Red-Blue) chair” was designed in 1917-1918. Composed of a modular grid of square or rectangular sticks painted black and with a sustaining seat and back of red and blue rectangular plywood planes, this design enabled each element to maintain its own absolute identity because of the color scheme and the joinery. It was the first executed object to exhibit the artistic principles of de Stijl, and became the movement’s most recognised icon.
condition: fully restored and in outstanding condition

Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen: two easychairs, model "AX" laminated beech-wood frames with brown upholstered seats and backs designed 1950 - manufactured under licence by Fritz Hansen
ORIGINAL VINTAGE CLASSIC
Note: The "AX" chair was Hvidt's and Mølgaard-Neilsen's most famous design:
"In 1950 [Hvidt] and Mølgaard-Nielsen designed the "AX" chair which became the major
icon of their career. Inspired by the designs of Charles and Ray Eames, the "AX"
chair was the first Danish chair with a seat and back made of double curved
laminated wood. The chair was produced by Fritz Hansen and was built using
Hansen's process for laminate gluing, which was in turn borrowed from a
technique used to make tennis racquets. The process gave way to expansive
opportunities for mass production because it could be produced more quickly
without compromising the standards for quality wood furniture. It helped to open
up a successful market for Danish furniture that made the country a leader in
modern design. This design also opened up an exciting new arena of exportation
possibilities because it took into account the elements necessary to break down
the item. The seat and back could be removed and packaged separately, basically
dismantling the entire chair for easy shipping. The "AX" chair was built in
several different variations, with and without armrests and with reversible
leather upholstery instead of the wood seat. It was also accompanied by the "AX"
table and was exhibited in 1951 as part of the "Good Design" show sponsored by
the MoMA. Hvidt continued to produce furniture for the annual Guild exhibits, although
no single piece ever achieved the same international acclaim as the "AX" chair."
