Rare “Sedus” Armchair by Wim Mulder for Meubelatelier Allerhanden, Netherlands, 1980s

A rare and characterful example of under appreciated Dutch design: the “Sedus” armchair by Wim Mulder, crafted in the 1980s by the artisanal workshop Meubelatelier Allerhanden.
Its architectural silhouette, angled ladder back, and woven wicker seat reveal Mulder’s ability to merge honest materials with a quiet sculptural presence.

Executed in solid wood with refined joinery, the chair reflects a distinctly Dutch design ethos functional, tactile, and thoughtful. With its limited production and rare provenance, this is a collectible piece that remains surprisingly undervalued in today’s design market.
