Overview

The Bell Coffee Table celebrates the beauty of the materials with their colours and surfaces, along with the workmanship. The Bell Coffee Table is a masterwork of traditional craftsmanship. Each table is handmade and has characteristic features such as irregularities in glass thickness, small bubbles or bumps in the glass. The Straw Marquetry version looks particularly elegant with furniture and furnishings made of textile, leather, tubular steel, wood or glass, or as a contrast to the “classic” Bell Table. Manufactured by ClassiCon.

Manufacturer

ClassiCon

ClassiCon, a clever portmanteau deriving from the words “classic” and “contemporary,” perfectly fuses the range of designs produced by this German manufacturer. Founded in 1990, ClassiCon holds the worldwide license to produce Eileen Gray’s iconic range of designs from the 20th century. Before her death in 1973, Gray collaborated with London’s Aram Designs to issue many of her furnishings as production pieces – lounge chairs, sofas, side tables, dining tables, screens, and rugs. ClassiCon is the only licensed manufacturer of Eileen Gray’s designs. In addition to its meticulous production of her furnishings from the 1920s and 1930s, ClassiCon collaborates with a number of contemporary designers like Konstantin Grcic, Jader Alme ida, Nina Mair, Sauerbruch Hutton, Edward Barber + Jay Osgerby, Neri & Hu, Sebastian Herkner, to create new pieces. All ClassicCon pieces are presented as part of an edition where each example is both stamped and numbered. Switch Modern presents a cohesive ClassiCon range that encompasses nearly 100 years of important design.

Designer

Sebastian Herkner

Sebastian Herkner (born 1981 in Bad Mergentheim, Germany) studied product design at Hochschule für Gestaltung (HfG) Offenbach am Main, focusing on designing objects and furniture. In 2006, he founded his own studio for objects, interiors, and exhibition design. In the designer's own words, "There is a sensitivity and identity to my work that emphasizes the function, the material and the detail. I transport and interpret characteristics from various contexts of society and culture and implement them in new artefacts. This character infuses the most everyday objects with respect and personality. In this manner, seemingly contrary things can experience esteem." Herkner has worked with several manufacturers including &Tradition, Agape, Buschfeld, Cappellini, ClassiCon, Dedon, Emu, Fontana Arte, GAN, Gebruder T 1819, Gloster, Gubi, Linteloo, La Chance, Moroso, Pulpo, Rosenthal, Sancal, Schonbuch, Schramm, Wittmann, and Zanotta. Herkner has been the recipient of numerous awards including Designer of the Year at 2019's Maison&Objet, Paris.
