RARE 'ABSTRACTA' LOWBOARD BY JOS DE MEY FOR VAN DEN BERGHE-PAUVERS, 1960S
Unique sideboard with sliding doors from the ‘Abstracta’ series designed by Jos De Mey for Van Den Berghe-Pauvers during the 1960s. Remarkable is the low height of this model which is uncommon and makes it perfect as a tv stand for example. The beautiful walnut wood grain combined with the signature brass pulls also make this a highly decorative piece. In very good restored condition.
Location: Warehouse (by appointment)
Jos De Mey (1928-2007) attended the Municipal Higher Institute of Architecture in Ghent, with none other than Gaston Eysselinck as his teacher. In the 1950s, De Mey himself became known as one of the best Belgian furniture designers, and rightly so. He worked as a designer for Van Den Berghe-Pauvers in Ghent, as well as for Luxus in Kortrijk. In 1968 he starts a successful career as a painter.
