Six Fully Restored Erik Buch Teak Dining Chairs, Reupholstered in Black Leather

About the Item

1960s set of six teak dining chairs with floating seat designed by Erik Buch for Oddense Maskinsnedkeri in 1949. The chairs have a simple yet solid construction with elegant lines and provide a very comfortable seating experience on the elegant floating seat design and are becoming increasingly collectable. Frames of the chairs have been carefuly restored - all joints checked and reglued if needed, needed repairs made, carefully sanded by hand and refinished by our skilled cabinetmaker to insure that they are in very good condition with only minimal signs of age and use. Seats and backrests have been deupholstered, repairs made if needed, refoamed and finally reupholstered with black basic leather from "Sorensen Leather", a leather used for a vast range of iconic designs you see as collectibles in museums, galleries, executive settings and private residences worldwide, to enhance the sense of the good quality attached to this chair even more. Danish Industrial designer Erik Buch (pronounced Book) was born in 1923 in Copenhagen. Designing in the Scandinavian Modern style, Buch’s organic and functional aesthetic resulted in furniture that spanned chairs, stools, and cabinets. Like many of his Danish contemporaries, Buch combined fabric and leather with nicely grained woods, such as polished teak, oak, and rosewood.? Buch first found success with his Model 49 chair (1949). The chair, which is produced in both carver and dining chair styles, features a curved “floating” seat and a Classic Scandinavian Modern aesthetic. Arguably his most famous design, the Model 61 barstool (1961) has a typically Scandinavian base with organically sculpted lines. Many of Buch’s designs are named after the year in which they were conceived, especially those produced by the cabinetmaker and furniture manufacture Oddense Maskinsnedkeri. Oddense was renamed O.D. Møbler in the late 1960s or early 1970s, which is reflected on the labels of later Model 61 productions.? Other designs by Buch include the Captain’s Chair (1955) for Ørum Møbler, Model 310 dining chair for Chr. Christiansen (1960s), and a t-shaped rosewood bar stool for Dyrlund (1960s).? It is believed that Buch passed away in 1973, though some sources state, 1982. Little is known of his personal life, but his professional legacy remains as his designs continue to be appreciated on the vintage market for their high-quality materials, solid craftsmanship, and Scandinavian aesthetic.
