CB2 Collaborates with Charle Ferrer on a Unique Exhibition
Kalin Ned — March 28, 2019 — Art & Design
American label CB2 launched a chic mid-century furniture range that is exhibited through a collaboration with curator Charlie Ferrer. The silhouettes of the pieces have a distinctly European aesthetic that carries inspiration from a variety of countries — from Italy to France.
The mid-century furniture range is absolutely doused in authenticity as the pieces are sourced from the "finest dealers, shops and galleries in Europe." The vintage narrative of the objects definitely have mass appeal and through this collaboration, CB2 and Charlie Ferrer hope to tap a younger market. Since most of the stunning pieces are one-of, the selection in stores differ. The collection is also offered at an eclectic range that goes between $60 and $11,500 USD.
