Axel Einar Hjorth "Utö" Bench, Sweden ca 1935
By Axel Einar Hjorth
Located in Utrecht, NL
This “Utö” bench is from the Swedish designer, Axel Einar Hjorth’s Sportstugemöble furniture line.
This bench has a rather simple, yet well-thought out design. The frame is made of pine, mixing the aesthetics of rural, traditional handcraft with international modernism. Produced by AB Nordiska Kompaniet, this bench belongs to Hjorth's line of modernistic cabin furniture from the 1930's. The seat of the bench is thick and robust, with an oval shaped pine board, assuring sturdiness and stability. The symmetrically carved back with a gap in the middle offers comfort and functionality.
The four tapered legs of the bench follow the shape of the backrests on both sides, accentuating the geometrical aspect, and highlighting the symmetry of this piece.
Condition:
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use.
Dimensions:
54.92 in W x 18.7 in D x 31.3 in H ; Seat height 15.55 in
139.5 cm W x 47.5 cm D x 79.5 cm H; Seat height 39.5 cm
Literature:
Christian Björk, Thomas Ekström...
