Pair Of Boesen Style Beech & Mohair Chairs By Slagelse Mobelvaerk

About the Item

Steeped in Danish design heritage, this captivating pair of early mid-century modern armchairs, crafted by Slagelse Mobelfabrik in the 1940s, exudes timeless quality. Their classic aesthetic and focus on functionality perfectly embody the era's signature style. The chairs boast an elegant appearance, in the manner of design by Viggo Boesen, ensuring they'll remain a relevant style statement for years to come. These chairs are accented with mohair upholstery on the tops of the arms and backs, offering a taste of texture while one is lounging. The mohair and fabric upholstery may exhibit some subtle signs of its age, these imperfections only add to the chair's character and authenticity, a testament to their rich history. The floral pattern offers a tasteful pop of interest to a room's design, while the muted colors allow them to blend into whatever existing style choice one may have. This pair of Slagelse armchairs presents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Danish design history. They are more than just furniture; they are an invitation to experience the essence of mid-century modern design, characterized by exceptional craftsmanship, luxurious materials, and a focus on creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
