About the Item

This pair of Danish-made easy chairs is characterized by the best qualities of Danish mid-century design. From the restrained aesthetic to the elegant pairing of materials, these chairs are the perfect example of how pairing Danish design, the work of a cabinetmaker, and luxurious upholstery create exceptional pieces. These chairs feature beautifully patinated wooden legs that create an earthly look. The rounded shape of the flowing arm- and backrests is a signature characteristic of Danish Modernism. The backs are lightly bent, and the back legs are slightly splayed to assure stability and add to the “welcoming” look playfully. The Danish design idiom was centered on warm woods, quality fabrics and gentle yet robust support for the spine - qualities that engender contentment and well-being, a defining characteristic of Danish culture. These chairs are delightful examples of the understated but warm interior aesthetic. Elevating this aesthetic even further is one-of-a-kind upholstery. This pair has been reupholstered in a premium fabric with a unique and stylish pattern and soft touch. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The pair has been reupholstered recently in a premium 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. Dimensions: 25.59 in W x 30.31 in D x 35.43 in H; Seat height 16.29 in 65 cm W x 77 cm D x 90 cm H; Seat height 43 cm Shipping: The pair of easy chairs will be packed and shipped with the greatest care to make sure you will receive the works in gallery condition.
