Gispen Armchair No. 415 / 1401 - Wim Rietveld 'Haarlem'

This model. In 1954, model 415/1401 was introduced and shown for the first time at the 10th milan triennial and awarded a gold medal. It is a chair with an unprecedentedly sleek design for that time, in which the function largely determines the form. His beautiful frame made of iron and the armrests of bakkeliet are immediately eye-catching, the cushions filled with foam rubber are a novelty for that time. For many years the model remains in production and popular with the public, in 2023 the design still looks current and modern, which has rightly earned the chair the title design icon. This copy. This copy comes from the first owners who already brought the chair into their home in the 50s as hypermodern furniture. It was used for many years until the chair was due for a complete restoration in 2022. At that time we took over this classic and completely restored it, the upholstery has been completely renewed with richwool from keymer in the color no. 18, a beautiful ochre fabric with orange tones. The foam rubber has also been replaced by the very best material on the market, so there is a seating comfort equal or even finer than achieved with the original. Country of origin: the netherlands.
