Great, industrial design aluminum neck tube
with original case and box by Dutch modernists Frans Van
Nieuwenborg and Martijn Wegman, c. 1972; tube is made of two
half circles that fit together tightly when closed; about 20"
around the outside; inside diameter is approximately 4-3/4";
tube is signed with stylus: Frans Van Nieuwenborg/Martijn Wegman;
some surface wear, otherwise fine condition with no dents.
Frans van Nieuwenborg and Martijn Wegman have cooperated as
artists and industrial designers since 1972. Apart from
their work in the plastic arts they design lamps, jewelry and
other objects which are manufactured either industrially or in
small quantities by the artists themselves.
The timeless nature and clear composition
characteristic of their designs gave them international
recognition. Their work is exhibited in museums all over
the world. They are represented in many design collections
including the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. (from card
enclosure with necklace)
