Ruche Hour
- Kagan once said he “didn’t want to do things that could be readily done by machinery,” and this 1976 design is a perfect example.
- The seemingly simple sloped back features channel upholstery with intricate ruching created entirely by hand.
- A polished base nods to the disco glam era when this design originally debuted.
Designer
Vladimir Kagan
Vladimir Kagan pioneered the enduring voice of midcentury modern design. A designer of not simply furniture but what he called “vessels to hold the human body,” Kagan joined the portfolio in 2016, personally entrusting his legacy to HOLLY HUNT. Kagan’s designs radiate his vitality and passion for discovery. Born in Worms, Germany in 1927, he emigrated to the U.S. at the age of 11, just before the dawn of WWII. From his father’s repeated admonishment “Ehre das Handwerk!” (“Honor the handcraft!”), Vladimir inherited an appreciation of artisan skill which, combined with his innovative design sensibility, was key to his success.
