60s J.H. Rohé ‘coco’ lounge fauteuil for Rohé Noordwolde

Rohé was one of the largest employers in the Dutch county Friesland. In addition to rattan furniture, the factory produced cribs and wooden furniture.

The Dutch brand became big due to the immense popularity of rattan after the Second World War. All furniture from the post-war period was made in Rohe’s own factory. A real Dutch product was made here.

Despite of all ratan furniture Rohé worked in the 1950s also with Rudolf Wolf. He designed this beautiful lounge fauteuil. Metal slim frame and a comfortable fabric seat.

In the 1990s, the company launched collections by, among others, Jan des Bouvrie, Roderick Vos and Gerard van der Berg. Unfortunately, Rohé had to close its doors in 1997. Nowadays the items are still popular in the vintage and design market.

This model ‘coco’ fauteuil is in good condition consistent with age and use.
