Description
A Frank Gehry compact dining set featuring 2 bentwood maple ply Cross Check chairs matched to a maple and glass Face Off dining table manufactured by Knoll International.
Originally conceived in the late 80’s Gehry’s Cross Check chairs and Face Off table formed part of a collection produced by Knoll International in collaboration with their most famous consultant, the art collector and New York socialite Barbara Jakobson. After three years of experimentation and exploration, the collection was debuted in the Frank Gehry New Furniture Prototypes show at The Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1992 with production starting shortly afterwards; the collection proved to be an immediate success with many of the designs still being produced today. Inspired by the strength of the apple crates he played on as a child, Gehry created his ribbon-like designs using thin strips of maple ply bonded with flexible glue. The resulting structures echoed many of the sculptural and organic forms that had become his architectural trademark.
As always Gehry’s designs transcended conventions of style by exploring the essential challenge of deriving form from function and his collection for Knoll exemplified that ethos. The chairs in particular feature the same style of flowing lines and surfaces as found in many of his most famous creations. As such they appear as deconstructed elements of form that harness sweeping, sinuous curves in pursuit of the perfect sitting experience. In this way the clever use of the interwoven bent plywood slats yields with a soft spring like effect to give comfort in the seat and back.
Both the chairs and the table date from 1998 and bear the manufacturer’s mark and Gehry’s signature to the base of each piece as shown in the accompanying pictures. All the pieces in this set are in very good vintage condition with the woodwork showing small marks and signs of use as expected – the glass has no chips and only minor scratches to the surface and can be removed from the base if required for storage or transportation.
The set is perfect for a smaller dining space or in a breakfast room, conservatory or on a covered patio.
Dimensions:
Table – H74 x Dia 102cm
Chairs: H85 x W59 x D57cm
Seat Height: 46cm

We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
