Product description

CALVERT is from a series of coffee tables, designed by German functionalist architect Ferdinand Kramer during his time in America. Part of his successful „Knock-Down“ furniture series, it consists of a table top and two crossing invertible sheets serving as a base for the table. Celebrating 120 years Ferdinand Kramer®, CALVERT CHESS is based on a cardboard picnic version Kramer originally proposed for Coca-Cola in 1951. The special edition features a silkscreen black chessboard printed on natural oak lacquered.
