Hans J. Wegner PP586 The Fruit Bowl By Hans J. Wegner For PP Møbler In Ash

Product Details

Product Description

The Fruit Bowl is a finely proportioned shallow bowl, turned from ash and resting on a striking three-legged stand of chromed steel, first designed in 1956. Each Fruit Bowl is tailor-made and requires 16-24 weeks to be created. It comes in ash or cherry with an oil finish. According to the manufacturer, The Fruit Bowl represents an exceptional instance where Wegner explored the use of wood turning to create a self-contained object. Moreover, this design is a remarkable expression of the creative potential of solid wood carving. The Fruit Bowl was unveiled at the annual Cabinetmaker's Guild Autumn Exhibition, where its opulence was questioned by a journalist. Wegner explained that sometimes it is necessary to let one's imagination run free, resulting in extravagant designs such as the Fruit Bowl. Despite its extravagance, the Fruit Bowl is a stunning piece of art. Typical of Wegner's work, all the shapes, angles, and proportions have been skillfully crafted to create a unique design that perfectly embodies the golden era of Danish Modern in the 1950s. It is a one-of-a-kind piece with no predecessor or alternative versions.
