SOLD (Amsterdam) /
Modular teak wall system “Cresco” by Finn Juhl for France & Son (Cado), denmark 1960s / Bijzonder wandsysteem / secretaire / bureau, model “Cresco” ontworpen door Finn Juhl en geproduceerd door France & Son, Denemarken 1960s. Strak vormgegeven modulaire wandkast met een ingenieus systeem van opbouwen. De diverse elementen zijn op en/of naast elkaar te plaatsen door middel van kleinen rvs pinnen aan de achterzijde. Het geheel staat op een teakhouten plint in drie delen. De diversiteit in opbouw is groot zoals de foto’s enigszins laten zien. Het kastsysteem is ook als roomdivider te gebruiken aangezien de achterzijde van de kasten ook afgewerkt is met teakhouten panelen. De wandkast is van de eerste eigenaar en gemerkt.
Conditie: goede vintage conditie. Er zijn zeker gebruikssporen zichtbaar en het houtwerk heeft hier en daar een verkleuring door de tijd, maar overal gezien in mooie vintage conditie. Een van de plinten is in de tijd bewerkt/afgezaagd (ten behoeve van hoekopstelling) en daardoor niet meer gaaf. Dit heeft op het plaatsen en de stabiliteit van de kast geen invloed. Geef uzelf een goede indruk via de foto’s. Heeft u aanvullende vragen, neem dan gerust contact met ons op.

Special wall system / secretary / desk, model “Cresco” designed by Finn Juhl and produced by France & Son, Denmark 1960s. Sleekly designed modular wall cabinet with an ingenious system of construction. The various elements can be placed on and/or next to each other by means of small stainless steel pins on the back. The whole stands on a teak plinth in three parts. The diversity in construction is great, as the photos show to some extent. The cabinet system can also be used as a room divider because the back of the cabinets is also finished with teak panels. The wall cabinet is from the first owner and marked.
Good vintage condition. There are certainly visible signs of use and the woodwork has some discoloration here and there due to time, but seen everywhere in beautiful vintage condition. One of the plinths has been treated/sawn off over time (for the purpose of corner installation) and is therefore no longer intact. This has no influence on the placement and stability of the cabinet. Give yourself a good impression through the photos. If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact us.

Rare postmodern 80s table with a special construction designed by the Dutch architect Koen van Velsen (1952). The table has a solid wooden top with white Formica finish and a tapered table edge. The top is supported by a minimalist chromed steel frame on a weighted metal base and a continuous tension cable that keeps the table in balance. The tension cable is tensioned/fixed to three threaded rods with nuts. At the top, this connection is visible through three metal rosettes. Special conceptual version of a dining table.
Koen van Velsen (1952) is an architect from Hilversum, Netherlands known for his design work on the Discothèque Slinger, rehabilitation center Groot Klimmendaal and the library in Zeewolde. His work employs a contextual design approach, free of a personal esthetic (Wikipedia)
