A two tiered side table or occasional table, 1920s, with a modernist design, Haagse School (Dutch Art Deco). An honest and simple but very well made table. The table is in very good lightly restored condition. It is very stable and sturdy.
The design with perfect proportions, clean lines, sober appearance, quality of craftmanship and subtle details (rounded corners and the lower tier) give the table a pleasant appearance. It works!
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 main source of inspiration. The result was the now well-known Dutch modernism/ Haagse School style with its straight and cubist shapes.
