Solid mahogany corner chair. Circa 1960s.
Wim den Boon founded ‘Groep & together with Hein Stolle and Pierre Kleykam’, in … more Solid mahogany corner chair. Circa 1960s.
Wim den Boon founded ‘Groep & together with Hein Stolle and Pierre Kleykam’, in 1945. The group’s ambition was to continue the purist and functionalist prewar ideals and aesthetic into the postwar period or ‘reconstruction period’ in the Netherlands. Many of the group’s designs can be seen in the magazine ‘Goed Wonen’ (Good Living) of which Den Boon was the editorial secretary from 1948-1950 and for which he wrote several articles.
Like most of Wim den Boon’s designs this rare corner easy chair would have been designed as part of a complete interior commission. Without the back cushions it measures 62cm/24.5 inches high. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
from
