By Poul Jeppesens Møbelfabrik, Vilhelm Wohlert
Located in Waalwijk, NL
Jørgen Bo and Vilhelm Wohlert for P. Jeppesens Møbelfabrik, ‘Louisiana’ dining chair, oak, suede, Denmark, 1958. The ‘Louisiana’ chair was initially created for the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark, by the Danish architects Jørgen Bo and Vilhelm Wohlert. Inside the modern building complex the chairs were supposed to serve as functional chairs for events. Therefore, Bo and Wohlert had a comfortable chair in mind that is easily stackable. The round seat with off-white suede upholstery and a curved backrest provide comfort.

Set of Four Kaare Klint ‘The Red Chair’ Model 3949 Chairs by Rud Rasmussen
By Rud Rasmussen, Kaare Klint
Located in Dronten, NL
Rare early matching set of four Kaare Klint "Red Chair" chairs in oak, red naugahyde and brass nails. Executed by Rud Rasmussen, circa 1936, in amazing all original condition. Underside with partial manufacturer's paper label RUD. RASMUSSENS/SNEDKERIER. Kaare Klint (1888-1954), a Danish architect and designer, was a pioneering figure in the realm of modern Danish furniture design. Renowned as the father of Danish modernism, Klint played a pivotal role in shaping the functional and aesthetic principles that defined Scandinavian design in the early 20th century. His approach focused on craftsmanship, functionality, and a deep appreciation for traditional forms. As a professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, he influenced generations of designers. Klint's carefully researched furniture designs are based on functionality, proportions adapted to the human body, craftsmanship, and the use of high-quality materials. Notable examples of his work include the Propeller Stool (1927), the Safari Chair and the Deck Chair (both 1933), the Church Chair (1936), and the Circle Bed...
