00s Ohmann leather 6860F fauteuils for Gelderland set/2

In 1936 Koene Oberman, son of a Frisian timber merchant, received 200 guilders from his father to start his own business. In Culemborg, which had a long tradition in traditional furniture manufacturing, he was one of the first to start serial production of furniture. With that, ‘Furniture Industry Gelderland’ was born. From the former locomotive shed at the station, Oberman developed Gelderland into a major player. Shortly after the war, he set out on his own plane to achieve international growth. As a result, foreign manufacturers took Gelderland models into production. In the 1950s, Oberman attracted external designers. Danish design by Ib Kofod Larssen was produced under license and Rob Parry designed various furniture. In 1969 Jan des Bouvrie made his debut as a furniture designer with the Kubusbank. Many designers followed in this tradition, such as Henk Vos and his sons Bart Vos and Roderick Vos, Scholten & Baijings, Remi Meijers, Lex Pot and Studio Truly Truly.

This set of two luxury relax armchairs are from the period 2000-2009 and have the type number 6860F and are very comfortable and upholstered with luxurious leather. Beautiful leather, well built and very comfortable.
