Step into the world of early 20th-century design innovation with the exceptional furniture creations of josef hoffmann for j. & j. Kohn. These pieces are not just furniture—they are milestones in the evolution of modern design.
commissioned by the renowned bentwood manufacturer j. & j. Kohn, hoffmann’s furniture marries technical mastery with artistic vision. Each item, from the refined “zevenballenbank” to the sensuous curves of the “fledermaus” chair, reflects the spirit of the wiener werkstätte and the aesthetics of the art nouveau movement.
most notably, hoffmann’s 1908 “landhaus” interior, unveiled at the legendary kunstschau exhibition, showcased a complete domestic environment grounded in elegance, utility, and craftsmanship. His use of bent beechwood combined with luxurious finishes such as rare woods and brass fittings reveals his sensitivity to both material and form.
today, these pieces are celebrated as cornerstones of jugendstil and as pioneering works that paved the way for modernist design. Coveted by collectors and museums alike, owning one is to hold a piece of design history. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
