About the Item

Rare Prototype of a Mogens Lassen tractor seat stool in black lacquered metal made in Denmark in the 1930’s. The stool is a prototype of the tractor seat stool that can be seen used in the garden of Mogens Lassens own home, the stool from Mogens Lassen’s home was also presented at the memorial exhibition for Mogens Lassen at the Aarhus Kunsthal in the 1980’s. The last picture is a picture of the stool used in the garden of Mogens Lassen’s home. Mogens Lassen was a important part in the modernist movement of Danish architecture together with his brother Flemming Lassen and many other Danish architects like Arne Jacobsen who also was a friend of the brothers, they had all gone to the same primary school. Mogens Lassen in his time would also work together with other architects like Vilhelm Lauritzen and he also worked at the Danish cabinetmaker company Fritz Hansen at the same time as other big architects like Frits Schlegel, Magnus Stephensen, Kaj Gottlob and Kaare Klint. The stool is in good solid condition with heavy wear and signs of use but nothing that effects the stools construction in any at all. This stool is the perfect piece for anyone who wants to start a good collection or even for a museum.
