The Golden Age of the Netherlands spanned for nearly a century finishing towards the end of the 17th century. It was at this time that the Netherlands saw economic prosperity and artistic achievements many of which are now on display in the art galleries all over the world. Most of the Dutch Masters plied their trade during this Golden Age, Johannes Vermeer being possibly the most well known and popular. As prosperity grew, so did the status of many households creating a need for more sophisticated furniture yet functional. The Dutch linen press met this need providing large amounts of storage space to store linens, garments, and other household items.
This same ability to provide ample storage has been utilised in many of today’s home although with a modern twist. It’s not unusual to now see the Dutch linen press used...

Gilbert Rohde Paldao Cabinet for Herman Miller
Located in Hanover, MA
Gilbert Rohde designed this chest for Herman Miller as part of his 1941 Paldao Line of streamline modernist and modular furniture in exotic veneer. This is model no. 4103, two-door cabinet with distinctively incised large round pulls, interior fitted with two adjustable shelves behind the left door and five pull-out drawers behind the right door, fronts finished in black enamel. The case top and sides are Paldao wood; the doors are in highly figured burl Acacia. The finish is called "Beaver" which is natural color, no stain, satin varnish. The back is numbered "4130." All of Rohde's designs for Herman Miller are marked with a 4-digit number; the first two numbers indicate the year, and the second two numbers indicate the individual piece. Newly refinished and ready to place in your home.
The Herman Miller Furniture Company was devoted to manufacturing period reproduction furniture until Pioneer industrial designer Gilbert Rohde walked into their Grand Rapids showroom in 1930. A devout modernist, Rohde convinced D.J. De Pree to focus on modern furniture throughout the 1930s, and to produce exclusively modern furniture by the time Rohde died in 1944.
Work by the pioneering American industrial and furniture designer, Gilbert Rohde, is notable for its thoroughly modern, informal, and multifunctional qualities. Rohde’s ability to create appealing modernist furnishings for middle-class homes, while also devising merchandising strategies to sell these goods, places him within a unique framework in American design history. Born and raised in New York, Rohde was the son of a cabinetmaker. He attended New York City public schools and his post-high school education included courses at the Art Students League and the Grand Central School of Art. Rohde’s visit to Europe in the spring and summer of 1927 (with later trips in 1931 and 1937) to see the Bauhaus in Dessau and the French modernist design that debuted in the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris, profoundly inspired his concept of design and the role it should play in daily life. The French Art Deco and German rationalist styles he saw in Europe influenced the furniture he designed from the late 1920s into the 1940s, pieces he created to suit a rapidly changing American lifestyle.
In addition to his work for Herman Miller Inc., Rohde also designed for several other furniture firms, including Thonet, Troy Sunshade, and Heywood-Wakefield. What set Rohde apart from his contemporaries was his all-encompassing understanding of the furniture industry, from design and production to marketing and showroom display.[1] During his time with Herman Miller Inc. (1932-1944), Rohde set the standard for collaborative efforts between designers and furniture firms, with George Nelson and Charles and Ray Eames later...

Vintage, New and Antique Linen Presses
A vintage, new or antique linen press is a great way to prevent wrinkles while storing linens in a space that will remain dry.
Linen presses are a type of storage cabinet used to store domestic linens such as bedsheets, napkins and tablecloths. Early models had storage space as well as a pressing device, with some also having features that aired the linens. The purpose of these linen presses was to protect and care for valuable textiles.
These cupboards were popular from the 17th century to the 19th century in Europe and the United States, after which more modern options, like wardrobes and ironing boards, were widely adopted.
Early linen presses were often very simple, but over the years they became more complex and ornate with carved wooden details. As they frequently borrow elements from cupboards and wardrobes, linen presses are perfect for adding storage space to a home. Some can display decorative objects like dinnerware while storing sheets and other linen essentials in drawers.
While they have a practical purpose, linen presses can set the tone for a room especially because their large size makes them a focal point. Some have rustic looks, others have polished wood surfaces that reflect light, making a room seem brighter.
On 1stDibs, a range of vintage, new and antique linen presses can be found for anyone in need of a storage solution. They range from mid-century modern linen presses with angular lines, practical features and symmetrical shapes to Rococo pieces with soft lines, carved elements and delicate details.
