About the Item

This Danish cabinetmaker lounge chair is characterized by the best qualities of the country’s mid-century design; from the restrained aesthetic to the elegant pairing of materials, this chair is the perfect example of how pairing Danish modern design, the skill of a cabinetmaker, and a luxurious fabric results in exceptional pieces. The cabinetmaker of this model put an emphasis on soft elegance and functionality, making sure the aesthetic is timeless in every sense of the word. Its elegance is the result of the subtle decorative qualities originating from the early 20th century art movements, and the simple lines deriving from those of the inter-war period. Even though - like Scandinavian design in general - Danish modernism is generally democratic and meant for the masses, pieces were not stripped of all beauty in order to make them as easy to use as possible. The design reminds of the kind, bear-like shapes of Carl Malmsten and Hans Wegner, guided by a certain curvy homeliness. Still, this lounge chair also appears dynamic thanks to the arm and back curving outwards. Quality craftsmanship was evidently of optimum importance for the cabinetmaker who made sure the material quality was just as timeless as the visual appearance. The dark stained and tapered wooden legs are lightly splayed in a characteristic Scandinavian mid-century modern manner, while their warm colour complements the soft, wool blend upholstery. The longer hair adds a lot of depth while also accentuating the gentle shape of the design. With its cosy mid-century modern aesthetic and material quality, this lounge chair is truly soulful and timeless. In the absence of any ornamentation, the focus stays on the stylish look supported by functionality and comfort. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair has been reupholstered recently in a greenish wool blend fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
