About the Item

The 1940s in Denmark saw a renewed focus on comfort and craftsmanship, merging traditional woodworking skills with the evolving aesthetics of modern design. Danish furniture from this era often emphasized organic shapes and luxurious materials to create pieces that invited relaxation and warmth to create hygge. This period highlighted human-centred design, where functionality and elegance were deeply intertwined. This Danish armchair features a robust yet elegant stained beech frame that showcases the natural richness of the wood, lending the piece a comforting warmth. The curving armrests, which showcase the skilfully shaped and polished beech overlays, flow gracefully into the generous backrest and seat, emphasizing their fluidity. The sumptuous dark red mohair upholstery brings a deep, velvety texture that enhances the chair’s inviting character while adding a dramatic touch of colour to any interior. The design envelops the sitter through the rounded wing-back, cushioned to offer maximum comfort, making the chair as practical as it is visually striking. Subtle button tufting on the backrest adds a refined detail that complements the chair's classic lines. The sturdy yet soft model speaks to Danish traditions of creating furniture made to last generations. This easy chair combines rich materials and an appealing form encapsulates the timeless charm of mid-century design. Through its craftsmanship, comfort, and enduring elegance, this chair commands appreciation for its cabinetmaker. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair has been reupholstered recently in a premium mohair fabric. Each of our items can be reupholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice. Please reach out for more information.
