CONFESSIONS

School is Back in Session

Willem Penaat for Metz & Co, wood desk

As the season turns to autumn, we are delighted to introduce a new collection of antique treasures. This latest collection pays homage to the artistic and architectural excellence of early 20th century Dutch design. With a focus on the groundbreaking work of Haagse and Amsterdamse School designers, the pieces show a unique blend of traditional Dutch craftsmanship and modernist design principles. Indeed, these pieces are more than just furniture; they are a testament to a bygone era of artistic innovation and craft.

The legacy of these design schools left an indelible mark on Dutch architecture and design, and now, you can own a piece of this legacy. Our carefully curated selection features five exquisite items from this iconic period. Each piece showcases the movement’s hallmark traits—solid wood construction, geometric forms, intricate detailing, and functional elegance.

From beautifully constructed desks to stunning wood cabinets, these items tell a story of craftsmanship and artistry that has endured the test of time. Whether you’re an aficionado of design history or simply appreciate the beauty of well-crafted furniture, our Amsterdamse and Haagse School collection is a must-see.

As with any period of furniture, I prefer pieces from the earlier and humble stages of the period before they become more embellished and imitated trends. Therefore, I have focused on those earlier pieces in our collection. Please stop by our showroom to experience the craftsmanship in person or view the items on our website to view a part of Dutch design history!
