AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fantastic and exceptional 2-piece chair set by Jørgen Kastholm for Interprofil, in red and black bentwood shell, chrome steel frame, and gray and red fabric seat cushions, Germany, 1980s

As a work of art it is beautiful to behold; sculptural in appearance and, thanks to its ergonomic design, comfortable to sit in.

Kastholm initially trained as a smith but soon turned to furniture design. He attended the School of Interior Design (Danish: Skolen For Boligindretning) in Copenhagen, where he studied with Finn Juhl.

During his studies at the design school, Kastholm met the cabinetmaker Preben Fabricius, who became his partner for several years. Both pursued a similar approach to furniture design and were determined never to compromise on quality.

We are nonetheless always striving in good faith to capture the condition of the objects as accurately as possible.

Seller's Story

Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies. Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt. To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty. And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives. We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy. We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people. Bülent Usta & Sarah-Larissa Kolmeder
