Set of 2 Friso Kramer Result chairs – Ahrend de Cirkel, grey, 1960s
Friso Kramer Result chairs by Ahrend de Cirkel – set of 2, grey
A set of two original Result chairs, designed in 1958 by Friso Kramer and Wim Rietveld for Ahrend de Cirkel. The characteristic compass base of folded sheet steel is finished in the original grey lacquer; seat and backrest are of bent plywood with a warm, teak-coloured top layer. The back support bears the stamped mark ‘Ahrend Cirkel’ (photo 11). The Result is an icon of Dutch industrial design and one of the best-known school chairs of the post-war period.
Why we chose this piece
An honest, original set in the sought-after grey version, with factory stamp and never resprayed. It is precisely the interplay of the sleek steel frame and the warm wood that makes these chairs timeless.
Style and interior
Beautiful as dining chairs or a desk chair in an industrial, mid-century or loft interior, but also in a Scandinavian or Japandi interior around a wooden table.
