Three legs. Three generations. One family story.

Designed by GECKELER MICHELS, the HJW coat stand celebrates 50 years of functionals’ history—formerly known as van Esch. Its three powder-coated steel legs represent the three generations behind the family business, while its name pays tribute to the founder, Hendricus Johannes Wilhelmus (HJW) van Esch.

A functional object shaped by heritage, craftsmanship and thoughtful simplicity.

Crafted to age beautifully.

Miller’s dark brown upholstery is made from 4 mm thick, high-quality leather, carefully finished with natural waxes and oils. Over time, the material develops even more character, making every chair truly unique.

Comfortable, elegant and made to last.
