Set of Eight Wood Dining Chairs by Alwy Visschedyk

About the Item

This rare set of 8 chairs in ash wood by designer Alwy Visschedyck is meticulously well-crafted and visually awesome in the simplicity of design. Despite their strikingly angular appearance, these chairs offer a surprising level of comfort. The perfectly angled backrest and sturdy construction ensure a pleasant seating experience. Their unique design also allows versatility when arranged side-by-side and transformed into a bench, reflecting their functionality. Born in Holland, Alwy Visschedyk immigrated to Australia with his family and spent his formative years in the idyllic town of Rockingham, located along the Indian Ocean. The pristine bays and rugged islands surrounding him fostered his deep appreciation for simplicity, nature, and the allure of outdoor spaces. Eventually settling in California, Alwy pursued his studies in painting at the California Institute of the Arts. However, his artistic journey led him towards the three-dimensional realm of sculpture and furniture design. Alwy introduced his initial designs for Summit in 2008, unveiling a portfolio that exemplifies his expansive creative range and rare versatility.
