Dutch Arts & Crafts Chairs by W. Kuyper, The Netherlands 1920s
Located in Utrecht, NL
Inspired by the British Arts and Crafts movement, Dutch designers adopted a commitment to handcraft and the idea that artistic talent should benefit society. Following the international Art Nouveau movement, they practised integration of all the arts and drew motifs from nature, rather than eclectic historical precedents. This rare pair is a beautiful representation of the movement’s heritage in the Netherlands.
The Dutch Arts & Crafts movement borrowed from the indigenous patterns and techniques of the Dutch East Indies colony, as well as the sober Old Dutch furniture...

Two Chairs by Dom Hans van der Laan, The Netherlands 1960s
By Dom Hans van der Laan
Located in Utrecht, NL
This 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. 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 backs serve the purpose of joining multiple pieces together, and lifting them.
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. Although Dom Hans van der Laan left a small body of work behind, his legacy is highly regarded in the world of architecture. The St. Benedictusberg Abbey in Vaals and its interior quickly became his masterpiece at the age of 53. This model is still found in the Dutch church named Sint Willibrorduskerk in Almelo, for which it was possibly designed for in 1964.
