Danish Cabinetmaker Modern Bouclé Daybed, Denmark, 1940s
About the Item
This stunning daybed with its exotic wood base was inspired by classic Danish furniture design and simplicity. Danish Modern is a recognized term around the world, and pieces from the mid-century era, like this daybed, are characterized by clarity in design and extremely high-quality craftsmanship and choice of materials.
The streamlined solid wood frame of this model features a robust, fully upholstered top, and a sturdy, sculpted wood base. From the minimalistic design to the focus on the materials, this daybed has the characteristics of “honest” design that has been a core concept among Scandinavian furniture designers and makers. The sleek look is the result of the clean lines, functional design and expert craftsmanship. Still, evident attention was paid to the details, which is most visible in the shape of the legs. The four legs stem directly from the base into a curved form. This small but important detail lightens the design and accentuates the beauty of the exotic wood. Furthermore, in the absence of any other form of ornamentation, the luxurious bouclé upholstery stays in focus, utilizing the fabric’s texture to elevate the mattress visually. If there is a single common denominator for Danish Modern, it is not so much the design or form, but the quality of the execution: the woodwork and the choice of materials. This daybed excels in these areas, bringing modernism and quality to any space.
Denmark has a long history of furniture-making. Through the 19th century, the country also had a very strong tradition of cabinetmaking, or producing traditional furniture by hand. In the early 20th century, these cabinetmaking traditions began to merge with modern forces like industrialization. This daybed however, is a handmade piece that remains quite rare.

- Danish Cabinetmaker Lounge Chair in a Patterned Bouclé Fabric, Denmark 1940sLocated in Utrecht, NLThis beautiful Danish cabinetmaker lounge chair recalls the peak of Danish Mid-Century Modern design. Thanks to its curved shape, this model is exceptionally cosy and elegant. Curved chairs like this are statement pieces in any space, but they can also adapt to a variety of styles thanks to their universal appeal. With its classic shape paired with modern design, the generous size, and fully upholstered body, this lounge chair is outstanding, even when measured to the many beautiful models created in Denmark during the mid-century era. The large, curved design is reminiscent of the Chesterfield style, with rolled arms and a curving back, short feet, and button tufting. While the impression may recall the historic style, it is its more streamlined, modern interpretation with fewer decorative elements and a much lighter colour palette. The stitches on the back create a scalloped look that sections the back, enhancing the voluptuous size. The Danish design idiom, among other things, was centred on gentle yet robust support for the spine - a quality that engender contentment and well-being, a defining characteristic of Danish culture. The visual appearance however, is not the only thing that echoes Danish design, but also the exquisite craftsmanship under the fully upholstered body. The short, mismatched stained beech legs add a modern, organic feel, balancing out the voluptuous profile of the sofa. The front legs differ in their angle and shape from the back ones, adding visual interest, while the masterful sense of proportions and the soft upholstery guarantee functionality and comfort. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The sofa has been reupholstered recently in a premium bouclé fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice. Please reach out for more information.
