This original 1930’s chrome streamline Art Deco circular chrome side table was designed by Wolfgang Hoffmann for the Howell Co. This restored chrome side table has gloss black laminate inserted into a heavy chromed steel top. The weighted chrome base makes it a very stable side table. Wolfgang Hoffmann was the son of Joseph Hoffman, co-founder of the Wiener Werkstatte in Austria. Wolfgang and his wife Pola migrated to the US in 1925. Wolfgang and Pola Hoffmann had their own studio where they designed objects and furniture for the early American Pewter Company. They were founding members of the American Designers’ Gallery and AUDAC where they along with KEM Weber were instrumental in conceiving the 1931 Modern Design Exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum. Wolfgang and Pola parted ways in 1932 and 2 years later Wolfgang Hoffmann became a designer for the Howell Furniture Company located in Illinois from 1934-1942.
