About the Item
Rare CK94 bookcase by Maarten Van Severen, an original MVS studio edition. Made of aluminum and matte plexiglass. Extremely rare and museum-worthy.
The CK94 bookcase , designed and made by Maarten Van Severen between 1993 and 1994, is one of the most iconic creations in his oeuvre. This example is an original MVS studio edition , produced directly from Van Severen's own studio – and therefore exceptionally rare and collectible .
The piece consists of an open aluminum structure with a back panel of sandblasted matte plexiglass . This subtle combination creates a captivating interplay of light and shadow: the cabinet appears airy and transparent, while the matte back panel adds tranquility and depth. The result is a piece of furniture that is both functional and sculptural .
Thanks to its impressive dimensions, the CK94 transcends the role of a utilitarian object. It is an architectural statement that defines the space while simultaneously radiating elegance, simplicity, and precision.
Because the CK94 was only produced in very limited numbers and in Van Severen's own studio, it is considered an extremely rare collector's item . Its authenticity was confirmed thanks to the valuable information provided by Mrs. Marij De Brabander , further enhancing its historical and artistic significance.
A unique opportunity to acquire an MVS Atelier masterpiece – a museum-worthy symbol of Belgian design from the 1990s.

Abstract vilten art van André Bogaert
Located in Zwevegem, VWV
Bogaert's felt assemblages have a particularly soft and accessible appearance, which no other material he uses can match. At first glance they appear to be wooden objects, but the woolly surface makes it clear that they are felt. To date, only a few works of this format have been released.
Bogaert's felt assemblies offer a special insight into the possibilities of this material. While felt is often seen as something functional and mundane, Bogaert managed to elevate it into a medium for artistic expression. The softness and accessibility of the felt contrast with the solid and sometimes robust shapes he created, creating an intriguing tension that invites the viewer to think more deeply about material and form.
In summary, André Bogaert...
