70s Gijs Bakker ‘strip’ dining chair for Castelijn set/4
Gijs Bakker designed the Strip chair and dining table in 1974 for the Dutch furniture manufacturer Castelijn from Roelofarendsveen. Later in the 1990s, Gijs Bakker, as one of the founders of Dry design, had an enormous influence on the development of Dutch design.
The chair is made of curved laminated wood and actually stands out for its simplicity. Minimalist design from the early years. The Strip chair is stackable and very light. Due to the smart design, there are actually no superfluous parts on this table.
Gijs Bakker is actually mainly known for his jewelry. This Strip Chair is one of the few well-known pieces of furniture he designed. Perhaps that is also the reason that it is included in the permanent design collection of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.
Chairs are in good condition consistent with age and use.
We also have a matching dining table available with article number 01030822TE. Price for the chairs plus the table is € 2.860,-
