This room divider was salvaged from the cafeteria of the Générale de Banque in Brussels. The cafeteria was designed by Christophe Gevers between 1976 and 1978 as part of a large-scale commission covering 2,700 square meters on the second floor of the company's Montagne du Parc headquarters.

Built in solid oak, it consists of 7 horizontal and 31 vertical planks, which are assembled using the half-lap joint method. This joinery, without screws, nails, or metal fittings, ensures rigidity and strength. Three cast iron feet are included and are meant to be fixed into the floor. The product is sold dismantled. 

A decade ago our team dismantled these elements at the request of BNP Paribas Fortis. The bank carefully preserved them in anticipation of a project that never materialized, so they have returned to us after all these years.

Used condition. There are some visible traces of use such as chips, small cracks and scratches. Some planks may be slightly bent due to storage over time. Dusty, needs to be cleaned.

We recommend to inspect the product physically at our shop before buying.
