Illum Wikkelsø Furniture
Danish, 1919-1999
The work of furniture designer Illum Wikkelsø wholly embodies the spirit of Scandinavian modernism. With their organic forms and wealth of angles inspired by the Danish countryside, his vintage lounge chairs, sofas and other seating pieces offer ergonomic comfort and lasting visual appeal.
Born Kristian Illum Wikkelsø and raised in a town near Faaborg, Denmark, the designer grew up around carpentry and cabinetmaking. He apprenticed with a cabinetmaker in his teens and enrolled in classes at the Technical Society School in Copenhagen as well as the Danish School of Arts & Crafts. At the latter, Wikkelsø studied under Kaare Klint, an architect and designer widely recognized as the father of modern Danish furniture.
After completing his studies, Wikkelsø went on to work with famed Danish architect and furniture maker Jacob Kjær. After a time with Kjær, he moved on. He went to work for designer and architect Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen at Hvidt & Mølgaard, a firm established by Mølgaard-Nielsen — Wikkelsø’s former instructor at the Technical Society School — and Peter Hvidt that yielded more than 250 designs and lasted over 30 years.
In 1954, Wikkelsø opened his own design studio in Aarhus, Denmark. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, he made quite a name for himself, with designs that were new and innovative to the industry at the time. He created furniture for Holger Christiansen and secured commissions from the Danish government. While he’s likely best known today for his inviting teak and leather lounge chairs or slender rosewood dining chairs, some of Wikkelsø’s 1960s-era lounge chairs merged Danish craftsmanship and Pop art with their unconventionally shaped chrome frames and vibrantly colored upholstery.
Wikkelsø passed away in 1999, but collectors around the world continue to prize his outstanding designs.

Located in תל אביב - יפו, IL
Capella chair by Illum Wikkels with new upholstery in gorgeous white fabric, created in 1959 and produced by N. Eilersen in the 1960s.
From the 1940s to the late 1960s, Sren Willadsen was a Danish furniture maker. Willadsen primarily made seats, armchairs, chairs, and couches for Danish designers such Solmer Vedel, Finn Juhl, Illum Wikkels, and Nana Ditzel.
Wikkelso (spelled Wikkels) is a lesser-known Scandinavian designer than Hans J Wegner or Borge Mogensen. Nonetheless, he made significant contributions to the growth of Scandinavian design in the 1950s and 1960s.
Wikkelso, like many other designers of his generation, began his work as a cabinetmaker in 1938. He went on to study at the Danish School of Design, where he graduated in 1941. Following graduation, After graduating he held positions with the cabinetmaker Jacob Kjaer and the architectural firm of Peter Hvidt and Orla Molgaard-Nielsen. A few years later, Wikkelso moved to Aarhus (second largest city in Denmark) where he worked as an interior designer.
When Wikkelso began designing his own furniture in 1954, his career really took off. A few years later he started his own workshop. His background in cabinetry meant he had an very good understanding of the material he worked with (mostly rosewood and teak). The Illum Wikkelsø Capella chair...
