ALFRED HENDRICKX, Coffee Table Model 210 with Built-In Bar

Designed by Alfred Hendrickx for Belform in the late 1950s, this asymmetrical cocktail table features a solid wood frame, veneered surfaces, and a built-in bar concealed beneath a sliding tile shelf. The ceramic tiles feature abstract artwork by Belgian artist Willy Meysmans, who studied at the Mechelen Academy and the Royal Academy in Antwerp under Olivier Strebelle. In the late 1950s, Meysmans collaborated with Hendrickx on a select number of pieces, integrating handcrafted, one-of-a-kind ceramic elements into the design. He brought sculptural, artisanal detail to Hendrickx's modernist furniture, creating a rare fusion of fine art and functional design.

Unique piece in very good original condition!

About Alfred Hendrickx

Alfred Hendrickx (1931–1976) was a Belgian furniture designer who shaped the post-war direction of Van Fleteren, where he introduced lighter and more functional furniture with a clear influence from Italian design. With the Belform collection (1953), he developed a more flexible and contemporary language, combining refined proportions with practical use.

His work was presented at Expo 58 in Brussels, a key moment for modern design in Belgium. Hendrickx worked within the same context as designers such as Willy Van Der Meeren, Jos De Mey, and Lucien Engels, reflecting a shared shift towards a modern way of living.
