About this vintage design furniture
Arne Jacobsen was the architect and designer of St. Catherines College "new buildings" In the years 1959-1964. To this project he made the well-known "Oxford" series. To the dorm rooms he designed a furnishing of laminated oak, consisting of a desk, a chair, a lounge chair with a low table, that could also be issued with a cushion and as a footstool. This series was produced by Fritz Hansen under the name "St Catherines". This set of two St. Chatrines footstools or side tables were produced by Fritz Hansen in July 1965. The footstools or side tables have been overlooked an refinished by our cabinetmaker and are in good condition. The college is situated towards the east of Oxford, on the bank of the Cherwell river. Its striking buildings in glass and concrete by the Danish architect Arne Jacobsen combine modern materials with a traditional layout around a quart angle. Arne Jacobsen’s architecture in this and many other buildings went much further than just the architecture of the buildings itself, and included cutlery, furniture, and lamp shades being of his own idiosyncratic design.
