Living roomset F181 Square Line Series by Kho Liang Le & Theo Ruth 1958 Artifort

Product information:
Rare living room set consisting of two F181 lounge chairs and the highly sought-after D181 two-seater sofa from the iconic Square Line series, designed by Kho Liang Ie in collaboration with Theo Ruth, Frans Bergs, and Jacques Weijenbergh for Artifort in 1958. The Square Line series is among the rarest and most collectable Artifort designs, produced in very limited numbers and now highly sought after worldwide.

Defined by its clean architectural geometry and subtle Japanese-inspired aesthetics, this set embodies refined mid-century Dutch design at its best. The forms are minimal yet powerful, with a strong sculptural presence that looks striking from every angle and elevates any interior space. The D181 two-seater sofa is especially rare, with only a very small number of known surviving examples.

The set has been professionally re-upholstered in high-quality wool fabric from ‘t Spectrum, carefully restored in its original period-correct colours. Each piece retains its authenticity and is marked with original metal Artifort tags underneath, confirming provenance and originality.

This set originates from the lobby of a hotel in Amsterdam, further highlighting its architectural and design significance. Despite extensive research, very few visual references of the D181 sofa exist, making this one of the rarest documented Square Line sets to appear on the market in years.
