A Dining Table & Six Chairs By Guido Faleschini For Hermes, France c.1970

About the Item

A superb dining room suite consisting of table and six chairs designed by Guido Faleschini for Hermes, France, circa 1970. Hermes barely needs any introduction: it is probably the most famous firm in the world known principally for its workmanship of leather goods of the highest quality. The French luxury goods manufacturer established in 1837 specializes in leather goods, lifestyle accessories, home furnishings, perfumery, jewellery, watches and ready-to-wear items. It has had a string of notable designers over the years, including household names like Jean-Paul Gaultier. Guido Faleschini is a prominent Italian designer with an illustrious CV. He has restructured numerous Italian villas throughout his career, and designed the interior furnishings too. His achievements and prizes throughout his career have allowed him to tke on important projects like the restructuring of Villa Biraghi in the historical city of Monza in 1971. In the 1970s he starts a collaboration with Hermes, Paris and designs a range of home furnishings. This was one of his more popular designs but this table in particular is in incredible condition for its age. Bought from a private villa in the south of France it has hardly been used on the last 50 years. The heavily smoked glass table top is almost black, contrasting beautifully with the chromed legs and the beige alcantara leather or suede trim. It is incredible that it is still in such fabulous condition after so long, so elegant, so modern, and above all so stylish; as you would expect from anything Hermes. These dining room table and chairs were purchased together with a large 3 section side board, making an incredible dining room suite. We have divided them into two lots but we would strongly recommend keeping them all together. We offer complimentary shipping to all our customers in Great Britain.

20th Century American Dining Table & Four Chairs By McGuire
By McGuire
Located in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
Welcome to the timeless legacy of John and Elinor, the beloved founders of the iconic McGuire Furniture, a San Francisco-based institution that has been synonymous with craftsmanship and creativity since its inception in 1948. As a dynamic couple, their lifelong partnership laid the foundation for the distinctive McGuire style, a harmonious fusion of natural materials such as rattan and hide with the sleek lines inspired by Asian aesthetics. Discover the essence of their visionary work embodied in this exquisite dining table and matching chairs—a testament to their enduring impact on design. Crafted in the latter part of the 20th century, this McGuire dining set showcases the hallmark bamboo frame that is quintessentially McGuire. The table, adorned with a rectangular beveled glass top in pristine condition, stands as a testament to the timeless elegance of McGuire's craftsmanship. The bamboo base boasts a delightful warm hue, effortlessly infusing any modern interior with the inviting, relaxed ambiance reminiscent of California design. Immerse yourself in the classic beauty of McGuire Furniture, where each piece tells a story of innovation, craftsmanship, and the enduring allure of mid-century California style. Some history about the manufacturers: Like so many artists and designers, husband and wife John McGuire (1920–2013) and Elinor Stevenson (1914–2005) became masters in their trade by accident. The couple met just before the start of World War II (during which John was in the U.S. Navy and Elinor was a navigation instructor) and got married after it ended. They settled down in San Francisco where John held a couple of jobs — among them selling newspaper ads for the San Francisco Examiner while Elinor worked for Boeing Aircraft. Soon, an old Navy buddy of John’s asked him to help sell a bunch of rattan furniture and, needing the money, John agreed. His side business became so successful that John decided to quit his ad-sales job and work full-time in design. In 1948, McGuire Furniture Company was born. Alongside themed-century modern furniture designs then gaining popularity in the United States, John introduced an unconventional idea: traditional armchairs, stools and tables made of natural materials such as bamboo, which was strong yet could be rendered pliable when steamed, that were intended for the indoors rather than the front porch. The brand’s first success was the now famous Director’s X-Chair byLeonard Linden. The military-campaign-style solid oak folding chair launched in 1956 and saw rattan binded with rawhide strips and a high-grade leather slug seat and back that eliminated the need for a plush cushion. Elinor, too, designed some of the brand’s popular pieces, such as 1968’s Cracked Ice chair. With its rattan oval back a dazzling celebration of geometric forms that give it its charming moniker, the Cracked Ice chair was an instant classic and is one of the brand’s most recognisable designs. Today, McGuire and another American furniture manufacturer, Baker Furniture Company, comprise Baker Interiors Group. McGuire remains true to the founders’ ideals and commitment to crafting the kind of organic modern furnishings that are synonymous with the warm and relaxed feel of California design. The company has collaborated with interior designersSteven Volpe, Orlando Diaz-Azcuy and Nicole Hollis...
