About the Item

This exceptional 1940s Danish sofa and lounge chair, crafted by Slagelse Møbelværk, exemplifies the refined craftsmanship and timeless elegance of early Danish modern design. Created by skilled cabinetmakers, the set reflects the era’s dedication to quality materials, structural integrity, and sophisticated comfort. Fully restored to its original glory, the pieces retain their authentic copper springs, a hallmark of superior mid-century upholstery, ensuring both durability and comfort. The exquisite premium green mohair fabric, sourced from The Danish Art Weaving, enhances the set’s luxurious tactility while remaining true to the period’s aesthetic sensibilities. The deep, rich green hue adds warmth and depth, beautifully complementing the organic curves and clean lines of the design. Mohair is made from the hair of the Angora goat and is known as 'the diamond' of natural fibers, yarns and textiles. For over two centuries, mohair has been refined into a product of the highest quality in furniture fabrics, fabrics for clothes and is today one of the world's most exclusive natural fibres. As a product of Slagelse Møbelværk, a name synonymous with fine Danish furniture craftsmanship, this sofa and lounge chair stand as a testament to the golden age of Scandinavian design—where artistry, functionality, and comfort coalesce into enduring pieces of furniture history.
