Owning an EE Meyer piece is owning a piece of history, South Africa's most sought-after mid-century furniture manufacturer.
Meyer was the South African master of understated mid-century elegance, with sober and clean designs. The majority of Meyer's furniture was made in the beautiful hardwood imbuia.
Imbuia is not listed in the CITES Appendices, but is classified as “Vulnerable” on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
The Binnehuis furniture stores were located in Cape Town, Stellenbosch Somerset-West, Newlands, Port Elizabeth and Johannesburg and were owned by a Dutch businessman and his wife, Mr and Mrs van Ewijck, who moved between South Africa and the Netherlands.
