About the Item

Seat height will be brought close to 18''. Danish Mid-Century Modern furniture reflected Scandinavian materials and craftsmanship and mixed them with a modern style, and the period from roughly 1940 through 1960 was a high point for Danish furniture makers. This set shows why. These beautiful armchairs are a great representation of the quality and craftsmanship of Danish master cabinetmakers and the immediately recognizable characteristics of Scandinavian design. The welcoming, rounded shape of the voluminous arms- and backrests is a signature characteristic of Danish Modernism. Without any tufting or festooning, the focus is on the round, flowing lines of the body and its upholstery. The spherical, so-called bun feet on the chairs’ front legs are a pleasant touch. The stained beech wood’s warm brown colour nicely contrasts to the soft, light colour of the bodies, creating a cosy look, not to mention that wooden bun feet make a long-lasting, rock solid foundation for any chair. The chairs' back legs differ, they are tapered and slightly bent to provide comfort. The carved wood legs and round edges stand out even under the fabric. The voluptuous shape is a result of the upholstered, winged backrest that embraces the sitter, complimented by the soft seat and armrests. From the frame to the upholstery, these armchairs guarantee quality and longevity with an outstanding design. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chairs have been reupholstered recently in a premium wool blend fabric. Dimensions: 36,22 in W x 38,98 in D x 36,61 in H; Seat height close to 18.11 inc
