HANS J. WEGNER (Tønder, Denmark, 1914 - 2007).Set of six PP52 chairs.Oak wood frame, with cognac coloured leather upholstered seat.Measurements: 72 x 58 x 50 cm.This is one of the Round Chair models designed by Hans J. Wegner, specifically the PP52 chair. Like the author's emblematic PP501 chair, the PP52 combines craftsmanship and modernity in an exceptional way. Wegner presents a chair that values natural beauty, beautiful grain and flowing lines, whose geometric expressiveness is tempered by gentle curves.Hans J. Wegner was a leading figure in furniture design, whose ideas contributed to the international popularity of Danish design in the mid-20th century. His work belongs to the modern school, characterised by a special emphasis on functionality. He began his training at a very young age, as an apprentice to the cabinetmaker H. F. Stahlberg. He soon discovered a special taste for the use of wood, and his work in the cabinetmaker's workshop enabled him to experiment with different types and designs. At the age of seventeen he completed his apprenticeship, although he remained in the workshop for a further three years until he entered the army. After his military service he entered a technical school and then the Danmarks Designskole, where he was taught by O. Mølgaard Nielsen, and the Academy of Architecture in Copenhagen. In the Danish capital he came into contact with the Furniture Exhibitions of the Carpenters' Guild, where he began to show his creations in 1927. During these years Wegner collaborated with master cabinetmakers such as J. Hansen, L. Pontoppidan, N. Vodder, J. Kjaer, A. J. Iversen, Moos and R. Rasmussen, and also with the most prominent Danish architects of the time, among them K. Klint, V. Lauritzen. O. Wanscher and M. Voltelen. The annual exhibitions would give the young cabinetmaker experience of what could be achieved with the combination of design and craftsmanship, which led him to devote himself fully to design. Already in his first pieces, Wegner showed his interest in the concept of "stripping old chairs of their outer style and showing them in their pure structure". Throughout his career, this designer was awarded prizes such as the Lunning Prize in 1951, the Grand Prix de Milan at the Milan Triennale of the same year, the Prince Eugene Medal in Sweden and the Danish Exkersberg Medal. In 1959 he was appointed honorary royal designer for industry by the Royal Society of Arts in London. Today, his designs can be found in collections such as those of the MoMA in New York and Die Neue Samlung in Munich.

Property from the collection of a Gentleman Driver1974 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC Safari 'Paris-Peking' replicaChassis no. 10702412008413• Restaurée et préparée de façon professionnelle pour les rallyes d'endurance• Conforme à la définition 'Safari' de l'usine• Suspension Reiger• Projet à plus de 160 000 €• Professionally restored and prepared for endurance rallying• Built to factory 'Safari' specification• Reiger suspension• Project cost over €160,000Footnotes:Mercedes 450 SLC Safari 'Paris-Pekin' (réplica) – 1974Châssis n° 10702412008413Présentés en 1971/72, les luxueux cabriolet 450 SL et coupé 450 SLC étaient extérieurement identiques à leurs frères 350 de 3,5 litres, mais leur V8 de 4,5 litres, plus puissant, leur assurait des performances supérieures. Le coupé, d'un empattement plus important, offrait deux sièges arrière et un coffre plus grand que celui du cabriolet. Leur intérieur reflétait clairement l'implication croissante de Mercedes dans la sécurité ; il se caractérisait par une planche de bord matelassée, des interrupteurs encastrés ou escamotables et un volant rembourré monté sur une colonne de direction rétractable. L'injection Bosch K-Jetronic fut généralisée en 1975, de même que l'allumage électronique et les poussoirs hydrauliques. Ce coupé de haut de gamme superbement équipé atteignait une vitesse d'environ 215 km/h.En 1977 apparut une version 5,0 litres animée par un nouveau V8 tout aluminium de 4 990 cm3, à la fois plus léger et plus puissant que le 4,5 litres existant. L'utilisation de l'aluminium se retrouvait également sur le capot, le couvercle de coffre et les roues, ce qui faisait gagner au total plus de 100 kg par rapport à l''ancien' 450 SLC. Du fait de son moindre Cx dû à des spoilers avant et arrière, la 5.0 était plus aérodynamique que sa devancière, ce qui contribuait aussi à réduire sa consommation, un paramètre alors de plus en plus important, même pour les voitures de sport.En plus de ses nombreux succès sur piste, la Mercedes 450 SLC se montra bien adaptée aux exigences des rallyes d'endurance, si différentes. En 1978, l'usine prépara deux exemplaires pour l'édition unique de la Vuelta a la América del Sur, une manifestation d'une durée d'un mois qui emmenait ses participants sur une boucle de 7 000 km au départ de Buenos Aires, passant par Rio, Manaus, Caracas, Bogota, Lima, La Paz, Santiago et Ushuaia. Les deux Mercedes se comportèrent parfaitement, et celle d'Andrew Cowan et Colin Malkin gagna avec vingt minutes d'avance sur celle de Sobiesław Zasada et Andrzej Zembrzuski. Et ce résultat n'était pas dû au hasard, ainsi que le prouva en 1979 la victoire de la 450 SLC 5,0 litres de Hannu Mikkola au Rallye du Bandama couru en Côte d'Ivoire et lors duquel les autres Mercedes terminèrent 2ème, 3ème et 4ème. La même année, l'usine avait engagé la 450 SLC 5.0 dans le Safary Rally, mais la victoire lui échappa de peu à cause d'une rupture de suspension. La voiture pilotée par Hannu Mikkola termina toutefois 2ème. Les résultats de 1980 furent moins bons, et l'équipe d'usine fut dissoute à la fin de la saison.Cette Mercedes 450 SLC a été construite vers 2016 par les spécialistes slovaques de SLC Racing à partir d'une voiture de tourisme, en respectant intégralement la définition rallye. La voiture de base était restée immatriculée en Belgique jusqu'en 2008/2009 et avait été rachetée par SLC Racing qui voulait la transformer en la toute dernière 450 SLC 'Safari', en reprenant à la lettre la définition des voitures d'usine, y compris l'appréciable et très coûteuse suspension Reiger ; elle serait ainsi parfaite pour courir de longues épreuves telles que le Paris-Pékin. C'est dans cette optique que le moteur a été rendu compatible avec de l'essence à faible indice d'octane (RON 88). Le coût total de cette entreprise a été d'environ 160 000 €. La voiture, prête à courir toute épreuve dans le désert, est munie de ses documents d'immatriculation slovaques, de ses anciens documents d'immatriculation belges (antérieurs à sa transformation), d'un certificat de conformité délivré en 1990 par le constructeur, lui aussi antérieur à la transformation, et d'un ancien certificat de contrôle technique.1974 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC Safari 'Paris-Peking' replicaChassis no. 10702412008413First introduced in 1971/72, the luxurious 450 SL roadster and 450 SLC coupé were outwardly identical to their '350' (3.5-litre) sister models, though endowed with superior performance courtesy of a more-powerful 4.5-litre V8 engine. Built on a longer wheelbase, the coupé accommodated two rear seat passengers and provided greater boot space than the roadster. Mercedes-Benz's increasing preoccupation with safety was evident in the design of the interior, which boasted a padded dash top, recessed or flexibly mounted switch gear, and padded steering wheel on a 'collapsible' column. Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection was standardised for 1975, electronic ignition and self-adjusting hydraulic tappets being introduced at the same time. Maximum speed of this superbly equipped top-of-the-range coupé was around 215km/h. In 1977, a 5.0-litre model was introduced, powered by a new 4,990cc aluminium-alloy V8 engine that was both lighter and more powerful than the existing 4.5-litre unit. The use of aluminium extended to the bonnet, boot, and wheels, the result being a reduction in weight of over 100kg when compared to the 'old' 450 SLC. With a lower-drag bodyshell, courtesy of spoilers front and rear, the '5.0' was also more efficient aerodynamically than its predecessor, which further reduced fuel consumption, an increasingly important issue, even for sports cars. As well as numerous racetrack successes in period, the Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC proved equally suited to the contrasting demands of endurance rallying. In 1978 the factory prepared two examples for the one-off Vuelta a la América del Sur, a month-long event of some 7,000 kilometres in length that took the competitors from Buenos Aires and back via Rio, Manaus, Caracas, Bogota, Lima, La Paz, Santiago and Ushuaia. The two Mercedes performed perfectly, with the car driven by Andrew Cowan and Colin Malkin winning by 20 minutes from team-mates Sobiesław Zasada and Andrzej Zembrzuski. Proving that this amazing result was no fluke, in 1979 a 5.0-litre 450 SLC driven by Hannu Mikkola won the Bandama Rally in Côte d'Ivoire, with others finishing 2nd, 3rd and 4th. That same year the factory had used the 450 SLC '5.0' to contest the Safari Rally, only narrowly missing out on victory because of suspension breakages. Nevertheless, the car driven by Hannu Mikkola finished 2nd. Results in 1980 were less good, and the factory team was disbanded at the season's end. This Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC was built from a standard road car to full endurance rallying specification by specialists SLC Racing in Slovakia around 2016. The donor car had been registered in Belgium up to 2008/2009 and was bought by SLC Racing to transform into the ultimate 'Safari' 450 SLC with the exact same specification as the works cars, including the desirable - and very expensive - Reiger suspension...
