This table is a one of a kind piece from the 1920s, with the hexagonal top and division of the base it's reminiscent of - and most certainly inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. The three shelves are each at a different height, which gives the table a different appearance from each and every point of view. The piece is made of solid oak, and has black stained feet as another modernist detail. The table is in good lightly restored condition. It is very stable and sturdy.
The design is characteristic for the Dutch Art Deco period and Dutch modernisrm, with clean lines and a pure and sober appearance.
Pictures all taken in natural light and sunlight, to give a good idea of colour and condition.
In the 1920s, a style of architecture and furniture design emerged that would become known as The Hague School. More sober than the imaginative Amsterdam School and more elegant and luxurious than De Stijl, this style is also called Dutch Art Deco.
After the First World War, young designers such as Izeren, Wouda, and Alons and developed their own modern interior designs. They chose the work of the American architect Frank Lloyd Wright as their mailsource of inspiration. The result was the now well-known Dutch modernism/ Haagse School style with its straight and cubist shapes.
