About the Item

Pair of lounge chairs, oak and brown fabric, Belgium, 1940s. This pair of rare grand armchairs is by the Belgian De Coene brothers. The chairs feature comfortable, thick cushions that are upholstered in a dark brown velvet. The velvet is rimmed with a white to beige piping. The chairs have a reclining back in order to provide the sitter with optimum support. The best part of these chairs is however the frame, that is carved and executed in solid oak. The armrests are made by means of two thick, carved planks of oak. The horizontal part of the armrest ends in a circular, flat knob, giving this set it's special character. The chairs are finished with small, sturdy tapered feet. De Coene was founded in 1887 in Kortrijk (Belgium) by Jozef de Coene, who was at that time 13 years old. In 1895 his younger brother Adolphe joined the company. In their early years De Coene was inspired by Henry van de Velde, Art Deco and the Arts & Crafts movement. The company made many custom-made furnishings which leads to an expansive growth. After world war one, the brother visited the United States where they became acquainted with laminated wood production, and purchased a wood-stripping machine. They were the first company that made triplex in Belgium which led to the ability to mass produce. In 1954 they received the right to produce Knoll furniture.
