Lovers of eye-catching items in 60s design know it, at least in Switzerland, at least when they hang around brocantes or flea markets … the Rössler porcelain, cups, plates, jugs in the colours green, yellow and blue. Tableware from the lowest edge of the Emmental, from Ersigen, probably also in the lower price segment at the time. Today not necessarily at all. I am currently offering the items on the platform tutti.ch. click here and scroll down

Set of 2 Cantilever Chairs Bigla Bauhaus 40s 50s
Extremely rare and very good condition, not to say great. The cantilever chairs are not marked but I have found one exactly the same, marked Bigla with the year 1949. Lacquered plywood, chrome steel frame. Midcentury, design classic, Bauhaus. Measurements on request, I don’t have the chairs here.

Teak Sideboard Arne Hovmand-Olsen für Mogens Kold 1960s
Great Danish teak chest of drawers in very good used condition. Measurements follow, width estimated just under 1 metre. Price CHF 940
Arne Hovmand-Olsen was born in 1919 in Denmark into a farming family. He quickly developed an interest in drawing and design. He began his career in 1938 with an apprenticeship as a furniture maker. He was determined to make his own creation. He decided to study at a technical school for furniture design. After completing his training, he set up his own workshop. He quickly had great success: he sold in Denmark, but mainly in the United States! His workshop was closed in the 1970s.
