About the Item

This extraordinary and rare sofa, designed by acclaimed Danish architect Anton Rosen around 1913, was originally created for the Tuborg headquarters, also known as Rosen Huset. The building, a hallmark of Danish architectural design, reflects Rosen’s unique blend of Art Nouveau and Danish modernism, and this sofa stands as a testament to his sophisticated vision. Crafted from ebonized wood, the sofa showcases Rosen’s refined use of materials and attention to detail. Its sleek, geometric lines and elegant curves are characteristic of his architectural style, merging beauty and function. The piece has been expertly reupholstered in a period-appropriate wool fabric, carefully selected to reflect the original design aesthetic and maintain the authenticity of the piece. This sofa was designed specifically for the prestigious Tuborg headquarters, lending it a remarkable provenance. Its striking design and historical significance make it a rare and sought-after piece for collectors and enthusiasts of early 20th-century Danish design.
