Before the second worldwar, when Artifort already had become quite a large and well-known furniture company in the Netherlands, the name of the company still wasn’t sounding very catchy: H. Wagemans & Van Tuinen. During the economic crisis of the late 1920ies – 1930ies, the name ‘Artifort’ was introduced, and from the fifties and sixties Artifort got more appreciation by the international market, thanks to designer Kho Liang Ie who recruited the French designer Pierre Paulin ( 1927-2009 ).

Sensuous curves and simplicity..Paulin developed this remarkable lounge chairs in 1960 and has been in the Artifort collection continuously ever since.

This very ones I’m offering are still looking great and both have the original durable ‘Ploeg’ fabric on it. Great used condition, upholstery feels like new, fabric minimal traces of use.
In this condition they will last for another 10-20 years at least!
