Four Storage Baskets by Dirk Van Sliedregt 'Attr.' for Rohé, Netherlands, 1960s
About the Item
These rattan and steel baskets are attributed to Dutch designer, Dirk van Sliedregt, and were manufactured by Rohé Noordwolde in the 1960s.
Each Rohé basket has a metal structure covered in wicker. The organic material is carefully woven around the steel frame, which is painted black, creating a sleek, interesting effect. The combination of metal and wicker gives a modern look to these baskets. With functionality at the design’s core, this model is a decorative piece that can be used in versatile ways. The size is perfect to store magazines, books, or even blankets, allowing these items to still be visible even while store away. Dutch mid-century rattan pieces like these Rohé pieces have a well-established history and have been highly sought after in the past years. This is mainly because of the craftsmanship and modern design that The Netherlands has been known for over a century.
Rohé Noordwolde has been the main manufacturer of Dutch rattan furniture since the early 20th century. The Rohé rattan manufactory was established in the Frisian town of Noordwolde in 1919 and became one of the largest employers in Friesland. The Dutch brand became big due to the immense popularity of rattan after the Second World War. A real product from Dutch soil.

About the designer:
Dirk van Sliedregt (1920 – 2010) designed many particularly beautiful rattan chairs for Rohé. He combined his work as a furniture designer with that of a teacher at Dutch art schools, including the Academy of Enschede and the Rietveld Academy.
After the Second World War, Dirk van Sliedregt started experimenting with rattan. He created a couple of furniture designs, many of which were soon picked up by the furniture factory in Noordwolde. First the chairs were made entirely of rattan, and from 1952 usually a combination of rattan with a metal tubular frame. The pieces by Van Sliedregt stand out for their design, visually simple at first glance, but quite intricate on closer inspection. Van Sliedregt's designs are often a combination of rattan with a metal tube frame. He disliked sought-after shapes and what we would now call 'statements', and put emphasis on functionality.
Van Sliedregt was a self-made man, who made it from furniture maker, through furniture designer, interior designer and teacher to academy director. As much as he broadened his theoretical and cultural horizons, the carpenter in him continued to insist on the importance of good craftsmanship and practical experience. ~H.

- Two Chairs by Dom Hans van der Laan, The Netherlands 1960sBy Dom Hans van der LaanLocated in Utrecht, NLThis set of chairs was originally designed by the Dutch Benedictine monk and architect, Dom Hans van der Laan for the Abbey Church of St. Benedictusberg located near the Dutch town of Vaals. These easy chairs are in an untouched condition. They are made of pine wood and feature copper nails, giving these pieces an understated, rustic look. The pair is entirely painted grey, including the nails. This specific colour was carefully selected by Whim van Hoof to resemble the original shade as closely as possible.

Van der Laan was a leading figure in the traditionalist movement, the Bossche School, that held these values as well. These characteristics make these chairs charming, while also being beautiful pieces of Dutch design history.

- Sculptural Lounge Chair by Bas Van Pelt 'Attr.', The Netherlands, ca 1950sBy Bas Van PeltLocated in Utrecht, NLThis chair is full of exceptional features and details that make it a unique example of the creative overflow that defined mid-century modernism in Europe. The sculptural design is paired with the organicity of the material and various forms. While the design is no short of exceptional solutions, they are also in service of functionality and comfort. This is a chair of extreme comfort, with multiple joinery and construction techniques. It is a little lower than the standard lounge chair, and that is exactly what provides great ergonomics and aesthetics. The seat and back form an obtuse angle which assures the perfect lounging position. The removable cushions upholstered in brown cow hide add even more comfort, while the fabric’s texture stands out nicely against the smooth wooden surfaces. The flowing structure displays beautifully curved lines and rounded edges that are broken by the straight wooden slats on the back. The perfect balance between the fluid and straight lines is typical of Bas van Pelt’s seating designs. The subtle swirl carvings in the front are playful details that further show off the high level of design and craftsmanship. While the second half of the 20th century saw the takeover of mass production and many - now iconic - futuristic designs, this chair preserves the value and beauty of master craftsmanship and exquisite materials. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair’s cushions have been reupholstered recently in premium cow hide. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice. Please reach out for more information.
