Detail Description
After the cool and abstract modernism of the 1920s,
some modern designers and architects in the thirties designed unica and limited series again.
These unique pieces or small series for a wealthy clientele were often executed in luxurious materials with an exclusive look.
This armchair designed by Sybold van Ravesteyn for insurance company ‘ Tiel-Utrecht ‘ and the Royal Yacht ‘ Piet Hein ‘ for the Dutch Queen Juliana, is a fine example of this development.
