Description from the seller

Original Result chair designed by Friso Kramer for Ahrend De Cirkel in 1958. This is an early design from the first series with a grey frame; the upholstery is period-correct but not original to the factory.

The Result is an iconic design from Dutch design history and an example of 1950s functionalism. A timeless example of functionalist furniture design.

The design of the Result chair stands out for its distinctive V-shaped steel base, elegant lines, and ergonomically shaped seat and backrest. It combines simplicity, functionality, and aesthetics in a way that is characteristic of postwar Dutch modernism.

Friso Kramer is one of the most important Dutch industrial designers of the twentieth century. He gained international recognition for his pioneering furniture designs for Ahrend De Cirkel.

His work is characterized by simplicity, technical innovation, and a perfect balance between form and function. In addition to the Result, he designed the well-known Revolt chair, among others.

His designs are appreciated internationally by design enthusiasts and collectors, and are represented in museum design collections.

The chair has a distinctive vintage look. Any signs of use are consistent with the age and history of the piece and contribute to its authentic character.

The Result is more than a functional object: it is a recognizable piece of Dutch design history. A special piece for collectors of vintage design, mid-century modern enthusiasts, and interiors where timeless design takes center stage.
