Grosfeld House
The New York City modern furniture manufacturer and retailer Grosfeld House, which had showrooms in Chicago and Los Angeles, forged enduring partnerships with celebrated designers and is known to collectors for its vintage Lucite furniture and other pieces made between the 1930s and the 1970s.
Following the introduction of Lucite in the 1930s, Grosfeld House used the acrylic plastic extensively in its manufacture of everything from coffee tables to chairs to mirrors — its “Glassic” line came to encompass all manner of furnishings. Owing to offerings that took on unconventional forms as well as an integration of flamboyant ornamentation such as lacquered parchment, gilt metal and ebonized wood, the brand became popular with decorators who worked in what we now call the Hollywood Regency style. Grosfeld House also produced chairs, end tables and other pieces in historical furniture styles such as Hepplewhite and Louis XV.
Grosfeld House prospered under the creative direction of furniture designer Lorin Jackson, whose collections of plastic furniture became popular with consumers, and enjoyed collaborations with designers such as distinguished German-American creator Vladimir Kagan.
Kagan, whose oft-copied furnishings for Directional are well-known to collectors, created nearly 150 pieces for Grosfeld House. Eugene Schoen, an American architect and designer most closely associated with the Art Deco style, also developed pieces for the company, while designer Marc Berge made understated mid-century modern furniture for Grosfeld House into the 1960s.

$525 Sale Price30% Off - Fritz Hansen "DAN" Swivel Chair by Magnus Stephensen in Bentwood, 1930sBy Frits Hansen/Soren Hansen, Magnus StephensenLocated in Haddonfield, NJFritz Hansen "DAN" Swivel chair by Magnus Stephensen in Bentwood, 1930s Rare and important "DAN" swivel chair in beech bentwood produced at Fritz Hansen, Copenhagen in the 1930s. The chair was designed by Magnus Stephensen and is considered an icon in the history of Danish Modern design. The seat can be adjusted up and down by turning the top of the chair. Marked "FH DAN" on the underside. Good condition with all original parts and no repairs. Around 1930, the first Danish-designed chairs in steam-bent beech wood, called the DAN Chair, were brought to market. Although clearly inspired by the work of Thonet, the chairs were distinctly Scandinavian with cleaner lines and a lighter, more functional expression. Steam-bending wood is an economical and ecological production technique with a rich heritage. The pursuit of the steam-bending technique was game changing; not only for Fritz Hansen, but for the furniture industry at-large. The grandson of the founder of the Fritz Hansen designed a DAN chair for the company in 1930 - a rationalisation and simplification of the Café Chair - and then architect Magnus Stephensen designed the dining chair "Model 234" that combined a bent-wood frame with a more comfortable shaped and curved back rest in wood. This was also produced as a swivel chair...Category
