Mid-Century Norwegian Modern 2-Seater Sofa Stressless Pegasus Low Back Loveseat

About the Item

This modern two-seater sofa Pegasus Low Back Loveseat model, was manufactured by the Norwegian company Ekornes. The unconventional frame is made of bent teak wood in a warm shade of brown. Curved armrests flow smoothly into wide, rectangular legs. It is upholstered with high-quality toffee-colored Alcantara fabric. The comfortable seat cushions and side cushions are removable. The sofa is very comfortable. It is distinguished by its interesting design, which combined with functionality creates a perfect symbiosis. The Pegasus model also includes armchairs, tables and larger sofas. The history of the company dates back to 1934 when Jens Ellingsen Ekornes founded a furniture company. At the beginning, he produced springs for beds. In 1971, the revolutionary Stressless® reclining chair was introduced to the market and was the first lounge-television furniture. The Stressless® philosophy quickly gained recognition. Comfortable furniture made with extreme precision, innovative functions and an interesting appearance quickly increased the number of customers and the company gained worldwide fame. Ekornes is the largest furniture manufacturer in the Nordic region. For over 80 years, they have been guided by the same principles of solid work, continuing the Scandinavian heritage while caring for the planet. This sofa is in original vintage condition. It has minor dirt on the fabric, minor scrapes. The seat is at a height of 44 cm.

  • Mid-Century Modern 2-Seater Brown Leather Sofa3330 by A. Vodder for Fritz Hansen
    By Fritz Hansen, Arne Vodder
    Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
    This two-seater sofa model 3330 was designed by Arne Vodder for the Danish manufacturer Fritz Hansen during the 1960s. A museum piece, rarely available for sale, especially in the two-seater version. This sofa is upholstered in high-quality amber brown natural leather. Spacious and comfortable pillows are loosely placed. The wide armrests resemble the shape of a wing. The legs are made of black lacquered steel. Perfect proportions, Scandinavian craftsmanship with a clearly marked line of furniture due this project timelessness. The traditions and philosophical assumptions of Danish craftsmanship have been translated into a modern furniture idiom. Vodder was born in Denmark in 1926. Trained as a carpenter and architect, he studied with Finn Juhl at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. After school, he worked as a designer in Hindsgaul, focusing primarily on office decor. In 1950, Vodder founded his own architectural and design studio with architect Anton Borg. Over the years, the studio moved to several locations in Copenhagen before finally settling in the suburb of Holte, north of the city. Vodder and Borg worked together until the 1970s. Vodder is best known for its furniture designs that were usually simple pieces consisting of natural materials such as rosewood and teak. His designs were often inspired by natural forms. Vodder collaborated with respected brands, designing furniture for manufacturers such as Fritz Hansen, France & Søn, Nielaus, Sibast, Kircodan. In the 1950s and 1970s, Vodder furniture designs were used by President Jimmy Carter at the White House and President Anwar Sadat in Cairo, and were incorporated into the United Nations Office in Geneva and graced many hotels, banks, and embassies around the world. His works have been widely presented both individually and in collective exhibitions with artists such as Verner Panton and Nanna Ditzel. Fritz Hansen, also known as the Republic of Fritz Hansen, is a Danish furniture design company whose history begins in 1872 in Nakskov. From the very beginning, Fritz Hansen and his son Christian placed emphasis on the high quality of their furniture, which is their hallmark until the present day. The long list of orders in the first fifty years of the company's operation confirms this. At the beginning of the 20th century, Christian Hansen began experimenting with the steam-bending of beech wood, and in 1915 he created the first laminated chairs, which became the company's specialty. Arne Jacobsen completely dominated the 1950s in the company. He started working together in 1934, but his breakthrough came when he created the Ant laminated chair in 1952. The next projects: Series 7 (1955), Swan (1958) and Egg (1958), which were designed for the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, became milestones in the history of Fritz Hansen and are still produced today. This sofa is in original vintage condition. It has a natural patina and traces of age, leather scrapes, pigment changes, traces of repair on the seat. The seat is 39 cm high.
