Martin Visser Early BZ72 Slat Bench for 't Spectrum 1961

Very nice modernist slat bench, model bz72, designed by martin visser in 1961 and manufactured by 't spectrum. Originally it was designed for the stedelijk museum in amsterdam. 't spectrum took it into production in 1965 and produced it till 1974. This particular bench is from an early production and is marked and numbered. It is made of black stained solid ash wood, that gained a lovely patina. It can also be used as a side or television table. It is in good original condition, some normal traces of wear due to time and usage. No damages.
