Mid-Century Belgian Elegance
Designed in 1958 by Alfred Hendrickx for Belform, this rare set of six S2 chairs embodies the refined simplicity of 1950s Belgian modernism. The sleek black-lacquered cherry wood frames are complemented by the natural warmth of hand-woven cane seats, creating a graceful balance of structure and softness.

Architectural Lightness

Timeless Authenticity
In well-preserved original condition, each chair carries a beautiful, time-earned patina that speaks to its history and craftsmanship. As a cohesive set, these pieces are increasingly rare and highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs of mid-century design.
