Arts and Crafts Coffee and Cocktail Tables

ARTS AND CRAFTS STYLE

Emerging in reaction to industrialization and mass production, the Arts and Crafts movement celebrated handcrafted design as a part of daily life. The history of Arts and Crafts furniture has roots in 1860s England with an emphasis on natural motifs and simple flourishes like mosaics and carvings. This work is characterized by plain construction that showcases the hand of the artisan.

The earliest American Arts and Crafts furniture dates back to the start of the 20th century. Designers working in this style in the United States initially looked to ideas put forth by The Craftsman, a magazine published by Wisconsin native Gustav Stickley, a furniture maker and founder of the Craftsman style. Stickley’s furniture was practical and largely free of ornament. His Craftsman style drew on French Art Nouveau as well as the work he encountered on his travels in England. There, the leading designers of the Arts and Crafts movement included William Morris, who revived historical techniques such as embroidery and printed fabrics in his furnishings, and Charles Voysey, whose minimal approach was in contrast to the ornamentation favored in the Victorian era.

American Arts and Crafts work would come to involve a range of influences unified by an elevation of traditional craftsmanship. The furniture was often built from sturdy woods like oak and mahogany while featuring details such as inlaid metal, tooled leather and ceramic tiles. The style in the United States was led by Stickley, whose clean-lined chairs and benches showcased the grain of the wood, and furniture maker Charles Rohlfs, who was informed by international influences like East Asian and French Art Nouveau design.

Hubs in America included several utopian communities such as Rose Valley in Pennsylvania and the Byrdcliffe Arts and Crafts Colony in New York, where craftspeople made furniture that prioritized function over any decoration. Their work would influence designers and architects including Frank Lloyd Wright, who built some of the most elegant and iconic structures in the United States and likewise embraced a thoughtful use of materials in his furniture.

André Kulesza Architect. Unique Light Table, Wrought Iron, Glass Crystals 1960s
Located in leucate, FR
Exceptional light coffee table by the architect André Kulesza, hammered wrought iron and polychrome stained glass crystals. The fragments of glass crystals have been carefully selected and combined harmoniously to represent an abstract design. The glass crystals are fixed on reinforced glass and protected by a window which acts as a table top. the base is reminiscent of a spider, the 4 feet merge in the center and under the glass crystals to support the light diffuser. Incredible work of art. The architect André Kulesza (1913 - 2012) known as the Polish Le Corbusier, carried out this unique production in parallel with the construction of the Polish church in Lens (city in the north of France) of which he was the architect, to commemorate the thousand years of Christianity in Poland. This table is like a masterpiece.

André Olgierd Kulesza passed away in February 2012, at the age of 89. If the name of this Valdericourtian doesn't mean anything to you, his architectural achievements are certainly not unknown, mainly in the north of France. The town center of Noyelles-lès-Vermelles, buildings in Noeux-les-Mines, the Ephad (accommodation establishment for dependent elderly people) in Sailly-Labourse or Violaines, the Millenium church in Lens and many more Other achievements in France and around the world have marked the career of this Polish immigrant whose destiny was shaken by History. It must be said that André O. Kulesza already had unusual parents. His mother, from the Polish nobility having lost part of her family massacred by the Bolsheviks in 1917 and taking refuge with her aunt in Poznan, attended Paderewski, Marie Curie and became a painter; in 1919, speaking excellent French, she worked for the French military mission in Warsaw and a young captain named Charles De Gaulle.
