Design Armchair by Gerard Van Den Berg, lounge -1934
-
Description
This lounge chair is designed by Gerard van den Berg in 1934. Plain, slightly curved, and its suggestive and unmistakable forms make this piece typical of Gerard van den Berg. The Dutch designer consciously goes for simplicity and for this very reason shows his creative ability. The armchair has a wooden structure and rattan seating, making it very comfortable. We have four of these armchairs available, prices per piece. We also have a matching three-seater sofa by Gerard Van Den Berg available in another listing.
Van den Berg, born in 1947, studied furniture building and design at a technical college. In the Seventies, he founded together with his brother the Montis upholstered furniture company. Thanks to his designs the young company soon attained international recognition. Its success did not stop van den Berg's leaving Montis in the early Nineties. Since then he has been a freelance designer. His work for leading international furniture companies and numerous prizes and awards testify to his creative ability. Apart from furniture, van den Berg also designs lamps, exhibition buildings, and interiors for companies and offices. -
