Good sized two tiered side table or occasional table, 1920s, with a design possibly by P.E.L. Izeren, De Genneper Molen. The piece is made from solid oak, and has macassar ebony deocrations. The table is in very good condition with only small signs of its age. Because of the size and angle in each table leg, the table stands very stable and has quite a presence.
Pictures all taken in natural light and with some 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.
