Danish Cabinetmaker Elm Wood Stool, Denmark 1940s

About the Item

Denmark has a long history of furniture-making. Through the 19th century, the country also had a very strong tradition of cabinetmaking, or producing traditional furniture by hand. In the early 20th century, these cabinetmaking traditions began to merge with modern forces to create simple and refined pieces like this stool. This stool has a classic look that relies on the beauty of the elm structure. Smooth and unadorned, the design has functionality in its focus with four sturdy, straight legs with profiled edges. The joinery techniques further reinforce stability. At the same time, these functional features are the base for the main visual element of the design, the seat. The upholstered seat is a visual treat, with an exquisite, soft fabric made from sheepskin. It is attention grabbing and provides both visual and physical comfort. Overall, this stool is minimal and stylish; it seeks to complement its surroundings. The upholstered seat with the light premium sheepskin fabric emphasizes the beautiful wooden frame and creates an elegant and modern look that is characteristic of Danish mid-century modernism. Form and function collide in this stool, a piece of furniture that is often underestimated. Designers define stools as jewels and statements in a space, and taking practicality into account, this stool is perfect to add visual interest to any space. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The stool has been upholstered recently in premium sheepskin fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
