About

Laurens Groen for H.H. de Klerk & Zoonen, pair of side chairs, birch, soft yellow fabric upholstery, the Netherlands, 1924 These chairs by Dutch designer Laurens Groen have a striking, well-documented provenance. In the style of the Amsterdam School a building including a temple hall was built in 1924 in Alkmaar, the Netherlands. Architect Laurens Groen planned the building as well as the interior. As can be seen in historic photographs the chairs flanked the long sides of the arched hall. Set of Art Deco side chairs in birch and fabric upholstery, labelled by H.H. de Klerk & Zoonen in Rotterdam. Laurens Groen designed a rather unique side chair which plays with proportions, lines and textures. Triangles are a repeated form in this design that underlines its origin in the Art Deco period. The upholstered seat has the shape of a trapezoid and visually connects with the upholstered part in the backrest, in triangular shape. The unique wood frame rests on black feet that contrast with the wood. Please note that multiple Dutch museums like the Centraal Museum in Utrecht (the Netherlands) also have this chair in their collection. Please note that the upholstery shows signs of age and use. We therefore advise reupholstery before shipping. VAT within the EU: When buying or delivering an item within the EU, VAT usually applies and will be added.
