Exquisite Pair of Chairs by Bořek Šípek for Driade 1990

About the Item

Elevate Your Space with this set of Iconic Bořek Šípek Chairs Add a touch of artistry and sophistication to your interiors with this exquisite pair of chairs designed by renowned architect and designer Bořek Šípek in the early 1990s for Driade, Italy. A celebrated masterpiece of the Jansky collection, these chairs epitomize the postmodern design movement, seamlessly blending function with sculptural elegance. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these chairs feature bold, fluid forms, a stunning combination of wood, steel, leather and brass, and a playful juxtaposition of curves and lines that makes them truly unique. The expressive leather-wrapped armrests, in particular, showcase Šípek's signature ability to combine craftsmanship with artistic flair. The front legs and structure are made of steel while the backrest and legs are made of wood. Bořek Šípek, the "father of neo-baroque," believed in creating furniture that sparks emotion. His philosophy of "form follows poetry" is fully realized in these rare collector's items. These chairs are not just functional furniture but artistic statements, offering a centerpiece for modern and eclectic interiors alike. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a piece of design history. With Šípek’s works increasingly sought after by collectors worldwide, this set represents a rare chance to invest in timeless postmodern design. Perfect for design enthusiasts, collectors, or anyone seeking furniture that tells a story, this duo will elevate your space with their unparalleled charm and artistry. Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. Wear consistent with age and use. The set will be shipped insured in a custom made wooden crate. Cost of transport to the US is crate included.
