Minimalist Coat Rack with Umbrella Stand by Coen De Vries for Devo, 1950s, Set of 2

Description

Minimalist coat rack + umbrella stand designed by Coen de Vries for his own company Devo.
Most likely this is … more Minimalist coat rack + umbrella stand designed by Coen de Vries for his own company Devo.
Most likely this is an early version or maybe even a prototype. It is heavier and the metal is thicker than the ones I've seen before.
It has a round black metal frame, red perforated metal hat shelf with an extra bar underneath and 12 coated metal hooks in red, yellow and cream.
It comes with a red perforated metal umbrella stand.
Nice space saving design.
The set is in good original condition. Some normal traces of use. The backside of the coat rack has some white paint on it from the wall, which is not visible when it is hung. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity



issues arising from misattribution less
