A collector's rarity! The dining chairs have been completely restored, so the black walnut wood grain and the brilliant shape of the chairs are even more effective than if they were not enamelled. The almost 100-year-old pieces are also suitable for everyday use. The seats are removable, as we are used to at Kozma, and upholstered with high-quality blue Italian silk velvet. H 97 cm x W 48 cm x D 46 cm, H 48 cm. Lajos Kozma, architect, industrial artist and graphic designer, university lecturer in art. Probably the greatest Hungarian designer ever: Josef Hoffman wanted him to join the workshop of the Vienna Werksatte, but due to his individuality and peculiar way of seeing he did not accept, which is why he founded his own workshop in Budapest (hímnemű). In 1913 he became a teacher at the School of Industrial Design and founded the Budapesti Műhely, which aimed to reform the art of living. His furniture designs became a concept in the 1920s under the name ‘Kozma-baroque’, he was awarded the Grand Gold Medal of Applied Arts for his furniture in 1925, but his style already pointed towards art deco. Lajos Kozma's furniture and interiors can be found in many museums around the world, in books, including the German edition of Innen-dekoration books.
