Dutch Modernism High Back Chairs and Cabinet by Jan den Drijver for ‘De Stijl’

About the Item

Important pair of Chairs and small Cabinet designed and manufactured during Jan den Drijver’s formative years in The Hague when he established ‘Woningrichting De Stijl’, a showroom and workshop which lasted for only three years between 1933-36.
