Offered for acquisition: a beautiful and complete Dutch-made seating set designed by Geert Baarsma (Baarsma Zitcomfort, Dokkum). This concerns the Primo model, an iconic design that pays tribute to the Scandinavian grandmaster Alvar Aalto (Model 400 'Tank Chair').
This set is a textbook example of Mid-Century Modern design with a high-quality finish. Characteristic features include the wide, flowing armrests of beautifully curved birch wood, which give the furniture an airy yet powerful appearance.
Why this set is special:
Origin: Includes the original sales documentation/brochure from Geert Baarsma.
Design: High-quality Dutch craftsmanship with the aesthetics of the famous Finnish 'Tank Chairs'.
Condition: The set is upholstered in warm, deep red fabric that is still in very neat condition. The woodwork shows minimal signs of wear appropriate for its age.
Comfort: Unlike the original Aaltos, the 'Primo' was specifically designed for optimal Dutch seating comfort. Dimensions:
2x Armchairs: Wide model with deep seat.
1x 2.5-seater sofa: Matching the same organic design.
If desired, we also have a coffee table which is in all likelihood also from Baarsma.
