About the Item

A design classic from the "Bofinger Farmer Series" based on designs by Gerd Lange from the 1960s. This demountable furniture is less well-known and less ubiquitous than Safari Chairs. The Bofinger chairs from this series consist of a complex plug-in system of individual wooden elements. They can be completely disassembled into very small and manageable individual parts. The elements are made of ash and, in this version, are dark-stained. The seats are made of thick canvas, which is looped across the frame and laced from the bottom. Official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs, designer records or other literature sources is available.

Chair by Dom Hans van der Laan, Netherlands, 1960s
By Dom Hans van der Laan
Located in Utrecht, NL
This chair 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. This easy chair is in an untouched condition. It was made of pinewood and feature copper nails, giving this piece an understated, rustic look. The chair was entirely painted grey, including the nails. The main focus of van der Laan’s design was functionality and rationality, which is reflected in the openings on the sides and on the back that serves the purpose of joining multiple pieces together. This chair is a beautiful piece of Dutch design history. Although Dom van der Laan left a small body of work behind, his legacy is highly regarded in the world of architecture.
