Torben Orskov is said to be one of the most significant design merchants in Denmark. He founded the company when he was 25 years old after returning from the United States working as a salesperson for a wholesale company that traded design products. With that knowledge, he created a company based on design products and implemented his own ideas and formed a store chain called Form & Farve in Copenhagen. It was the place to go for trendy, fun, and style conscious yet functional designs. He collaborated with many prestigious designers and became close friend with such names as Jorgen Utzon, Kristian Vedel, Jorgen Moller, Hans Bolling, and Finn Juhl. Today the company has been taken over and owned by second generation Jeppe Orskov and his wife Signe Ottesen Orskov and it maintains a significant & excellent reputation.

Scandinavian Modern Scissor Lounge Chair by Folke Ohlsson for DUX
By Folke Ohlsson, Dux of Sweden
Located in Topeka, KS
Handsome and iconic Scandinavian Modern Scissor lounge chair designed by Folke Ohlsson for DUX. It is in wonderful vintage condition. The wood frame has been restored; however, there may still be small signs of age. We did have to fill some rather deep flaws in the wood. The straps have been replaced with appropriate new straps. And the foam cushions are new and newly upholstered. Please see photos, circa 1950s.
Now you can get all your DUX in a row!! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. This is the iconic and beautiful Scissor Lounge Chair. It was designed by Folke Ohlsson for his company DUX, Inc. purportedly in 1949. It is so incredible in its simplicity and when viewed from the side you can see immediately where it got its name. We are very excited about this wonderful chair here at our shop. Its walnut frame has been completely restored and we have replaced all the straps, which were beyond repair, with proper strapping. Plus, we have made new foam cushions and upholstered them in a fabulous black and taupe horizontal stripe fabric.
