          PREBEN FABRICIUS (Denmark, 1931 - 1984) for WALTER KNOLL. "Conversation Chair, model 710, design 1972. Chromed steel frame. Upholstery in black leather. Made at Walter Knoll with label here. Slight signs of use and good patina. Measurements: 77/40 cm (height) x 74 x 80 (approx.) cm. Danish architect and designer Jørgen Kastholm began his training as a blacksmith, but soon left it to devote himself to furniture design. He attended the Copenhagen School of Interior Design, where he was taught by Finn Juhl. There he also met the cabinetmaker Preben Fabricius, who later became his partner. The two shared a common vision of furniture design, based on minimalism and quality and inspired by the creations of Charles Eames and Mies van der Rohe. Their quest was to achieve an ideal that, by its simplicity, would be timeless. In 1961 they set up a studio together in Gentofte, and four years later they presented their first designs at the Federicia furniture fair, where they attracted the attention of the German furniture manufacturer Alfred Kill. The latter offered them a lucrative contract that allowed them to work freely, so Kastholm and Fabricius moved to Stuttgart with their first designs to start production in Kill's factory. Shortly afterwards, they made the international breakthrough at the 1966 Cologne trade fair, where they showed a complete series of home and office furniture, developed from ten of their original designs. The two designers worked together between 1961 and 1968, a period of seven years in which they produced numerous designs that are now considered classics, such as the Tulip Chair FK 6725, the Grasshopper FK 87 and the Scimitar. During this period, their furniture also formed part of important international exhibitions, held in such prominent centres as the MOMA in New York (1967) and the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris (1967). Today, designs by Kastholm and Fabricius can be seen at the MACBA in Barcelona, the MOMA in New York, the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris, the Ringling Museum in Florida, the Art Museum of Brasilia, the Design Center in Stuttgart, the Haus Industriform in Essen, the Neue Sammlung in Munich, the Staatsgemäldesammlung Bayer in Munich, the Kunstindustrimuseum in Berlin, the Kunststofmuseum in Düsseldorf, the World Import Mart Museum and the History + Folkways Museum in Japan and the Museum für Angewandte Kunstgeschichte in Cologne.

          Est: €5,000 - €5,500

          PREBEN FABRICIUS (Denmark, 1931 - 1984) for WALTER KNOLL. Pair of "Conversation Chairs", model 710, design 1972. Chrome-plated steel frame. Armrests, seat, back and loose cushions upholstered in black leather. Slight signs of wear and patina. Made at Walter Knoll with label from here. Measurements: 77/40 (height) x 74 x 80 cm. As a genuine classic, Fabricius tells the story of furniture. The "Conversation chair" combines Scandinavian design tradition and functional aesthetics with the charm of casual seating comfort. Precise metal processing, superior surface quality: the armrests and the supporting structure frame the sliding seat. The result is lightness and simplicity. Whether as a soloist or as an ensemble, it was made for lounges, foyers and living rooms.

          JORGEN KASTHOLM (Denmark, 1931 - 2007) and PREBEN FABRICIUS (Denmark, 1931 - 1984) for IVAN SCHLECHTER, Denmark. Scimitar Chair model IS-63 Scimitar Chair, design 1962-63. Free-arch construction with stainless steel frame, shell upholstered in original cognac-coloured patinated leather. With publisher's label. With publisher's label. With age/wear marks. Literature: Danish Chairs, Noritsugu Oda, 1996 Korinsha Press & Co. Tokyo, Japan. Measurements: 68/30 cm (height) x 82 x 60 cm. The lines of the Scimitar chair were conceived by the team of Jürgen Kastholm and Preben Fabricius in 1963, and were shown to an international public in 1964 at the Museum of Industrial Arts in Copenhagen. Today it is considered an icon of mid-20th century Danish modern furniture design. Its radicality lies in the hollow seat at the seat-back junction, providing lightness and ergonomics. Ivan Schlechter was a skilled leather upholsterer, considered the most prolific of the 1960s. Among other things, he upholstered Poul Kjærholm's furniture. Danish architect and designer Jørgen Kastholm began his training as a blacksmith, but soon gave it up to become a furniture designer. He attended the Copenhagen School of Interior Design, where he was taught by Finn Juhl. There he also met the cabinetmaker Preben Fabricius, who later became his partner. The two shared a common vision of furniture design, based on minimalism and quality and inspired by the creations of Charles Eames and Mies van der Rohe. Their quest was to achieve an ideal that, by its simplicity, would be timeless. In 1961 they set up a studio together in Gentofte, and four years later they presented their first designs at the Federicia furniture fair, where they attracted the attention of the German furniture manufacturer Alfred Kill. The latter offered them a lucrative contract that allowed them to work freely, so Kastholm and Fabricius moved to Stuttgart with their first designs to start production in Kill's factory. Shortly afterwards, they made the international breakthrough at the 1966 Cologne trade fair, where they showed a complete series of home and office furniture, developed from ten of their original designs. Their minimalist creations, at once attractive and comfortable, were generally steel and leather furniture. The two designers worked together between 1961 and 1968, a period of seven years in which they produced many designs that are now considered classics, such as the Tulip Chair FK 6725, the Grasshopper FK 87 and the Scimitar. During this period, their furniture also formed part of important international exhibitions, held in such prominent centres as the MOMA in New York (1967) and the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris (1967). Today, designs by Kastholm and Fabricius can be seen at the MACBA in Barcelona, the MOMA in New York, the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris, the Ringling Museum in Florida, the Art Museum of Brasilia, the Design Center in Stuttgart, the Haus Industriform in Essen, the Neue Sammlung in Munich, the Staatsgemäldesammlung Bayer in Munich, the Kunstindustrimuseum in Berlin, the Kunststofmuseum in Düsseldorf, the World Import Mart Museum and the History + Folkways Museum in Japan and the Museum für Angewandte Kunstgeschichte in Cologne.
