Gustav SIEGEL (1880-1970) for Jacob & Josef Kohn, Table with two mahogany-style varnished wood tops, the uprights made of thermoformed bentwood and linked at the waist by an openwork frieze of bars and at the strut by a convex-shaped shelf. Austrian work circa 1900-1910 J & J KOHN stamp visible under the belt Gilded brass shoes 70x54x78 cm Some scratches on the tops Provenance: PIASA sale, Art Nouveau and Art Deco, June 16, 2000, lot 201 N. B.: this lot is sold with legal fees, reduced to 14.86% instead of 25%. This table by Gustav Siegel for J. & J. Kohn perfectly illustrates the evolution of bentwood furniture towards the modernist aesthetic of the Viennese Secession. With its clean lines, geometric openwork patterns and combination of bentwood and brass, it reflects the desire to reconcile industrial innovation with decorative refinement. Designed as part of a coherent furniture ensemble, it also reflects the influence of Wiener Werkstätte principles on J. & J. Kohn's production in the early 20th century.
