An original vintage Gelderland armchair, model Oberman 601.
An iconic design by Jan des Bouvrie.
This Oberman still features the original leather upholstery and has been very carefully and fully restored.
The armrests are fitted with new leather tips and new foam padding.
The seat has been partially refilled with feathers/down on top of a renewed foam base. Additionally, the foam in the back and headrest has been renewed.
Zippers and Velcro have been renewed, and the seat has also been fitted with an additional non-slip base.
All of this was done to preserve the original leather upholstery as much as possible and keep it usable. The leather has been fully revitalized, but not dyed.
The sturdy, thick stainless steel tubes have been fully polished and show no corrosion or similar signs.
The photos show a beautiful, weathered patina: craquelé and light cracks in the upholstery are part of this.
In our restorations, we strive to preserve as much of the original upholstery and patina as possible. The chair can be picked up in Zoetermeer or Nieuw-Vennep.
Other options are certainly open for discussion in consultation.
