Set of 4 Gispen ‘Rhino’ Poolside/ Garden Chairs by Richard Hutten 'Dutch Design'

About the Item

In the early 2000s, Richard Hutten aimed to design a piece of furniture which was not constructed. In his research he ended up with rotation moulding, for which he made his own rotation moulding machine. The featured Rhino Chair was one of his first experiments, using two different types of plastic: one more rubber like and the other a hard material. Because of the rotation in the mold each chair obtained a somewhat random pattern on the surface — so each chair is actually quite unique. Hutten’s concept was translated into an industrial product for Gispen, which resulted in a chair suitable for indoor and outdoor use. With its sleek form and very elegant proportions, the Rhino is easily the most elegant (and yet sturdy) poolside chair on the market today. The listed set of 4 chairs are produced in 2002 and are in lovely pre-owned condition, no stains or discoloration by the sun. In total three sets of 4 are available.

Set of 4 Galvanitas Oosterhout NV S16 Compass Chairs, Dutch Design, 1950s
By Galvanitas
Located in CULEMBORG, GE
For sale is a lovely set of four Galvanitas S16 Compass Chairs, arguably the most iconic school chair ever produced. The first to design with sheet metal was obviously Jean Prouve, but in The Netherlands the experiments with these classic compass leg subframes really exploded in the 1950s. Friso Kramer and Wim Rietveld designed the similar looking Result Chair for Ahrend in the same period, but the S16 turned out to be the most successful —featuring in most schools and canteens of office- and government buildings. Made from a sheet steel frame with a fine laminated and formed seat and back by Pagholz, the iconic S16 Chair...
