Jacob Hermann<br />

b. 1910, d. Ulfborg 1995<br />

Very long unique table / bench <strong>of</strong> solid walnut. Top with visible<br />

joints and "butterfly" reinforcement in top. Bench designed and<br />

handcrafted between 1958-61 by Jacob Hermann personally.<br />

Signed monogram JH. H. 53,5. L. 350. W. 54 cm.<br />

Jacob Hermann’s works as a designer are characterized by an internal<br />

tension between a sensitive artistic mind and a delicate understanding<br />

<strong>of</strong> the craft <strong>of</strong> cabinetmaking.<br />

Jacob Hermann only designed and made/had made few pieces <strong>of</strong><br />

furniture. His designs span from classical English inspired models in the<br />

tradition <strong>of</strong> Kaare Klint to pieces which in their execution and form<br />

point more to contemporary Peder Moos, but where the design language<br />

has a more powerful "nature" appearance. It can propably best be<br />

compared to the pieces by Nakashima. The bench is a unique piece that<br />

Jacob Hermann personally made for his partner and girlfriend Birthe.<br />

Provenance: Jacob Hermann, private collection in Denmark.<br />
