About This Piece

Vintage Design

Swivel chair “Modello” designed by Rudolf Wolf for Rohé Noordwolde in the 1960s. A very progressive model for the time with a comfortable seat. The Rohé catalogue says about this: “The materials and the resulting form were combined in such a way that an extreme perfection was achieved both technically and aesthetically. This easy chair was once reupholstered with brown leather upholstery. The condition is still very good, some small bump spots along the edge (see photo). No tears or holes in the leather. Material: Chromed metal and leather. Dimensions: h x w x d = 92 x 93 x 86 cm and the seat height is 35 cm. Source: Catalogue Rohé Noordwolde.

About the Maker

Rohé Noordwolde

Dutch furniture manufactory Rohé Noordwolde was located in the small town of Noordwolde, in the northern province of Friesland. Although the history surrounding the company's inception and demise is unknown, the town itself has been long-associated with the rattan furniture industry, and vintage furniture and interior decor produced by Rohé in the 1950s is part of Noordwolde’s continued artisan heritage. Beginning in 1825 as a cottage industry, Noordwolde was producing over 200,000 wicker items a year by the end of the 19th century. Rohé Noordwolde contributed to this number, producing wicker dining chairs , lounge chairs , daybeds , and baby’s cribs.

The Dutch craftsman Dirk Van Sliedregt (1920-2010), known for his Model 514 Lounge Chair (1961) which featured a rattan seat on a chromed metal base, is often mistakenly thought to have designed for Rohé. Van Sliedregt designed for the manufacturer Gebroeders Jonkers, which was also located in Noordwolde, during the 1950s, '60s, and '70s.
