About the Item

This impressive Scandinavian dining set of seven has an undeniable commanding presence; it begs to be left alone so that air and light can circulate through it. Marked by pale colors, natural materials and lean furniture, the Scandinavian aesthetic emphasises tradition and craftsmanship, and while there is a great deal of overlap between Scandinavian and Mid-Century Modern design, the biggest differences can be found in the lighting and color palette. As this set demonstrates, the style primarily focuses on muted tones and textures, favouring light wood. This set, consisting of a large dining table and six chairs, could be textbook examples of why Scandinavian furniture pieces are coveted: each of the pieces are made of solid oak with a beautiful grain and color. The chairs and table combine a strong angular structure with curved edges, which results in an overall impression of strength and durability. The stand-out visual appeal is provided by the table’s and the slender backrests’ wavy pattern that echo the razorblade design of the famous Danish designer, Henning Kjaernulf. The distinctive pattern also appears under the chair seats on the front, forming a great visual effect as a set. The two accent chairs with armrests are perfect for the table tops, making this an impressive dining set. The details, such as the extendable tabletop, the joinery and woodworking reveal the quality craftsmanship of the Scandinavian manufacturer. The chairs feature upholstered seats in a premium fabric that complement the light wooden color. The most charming thing about this Scandinavian furniture set however, is that it has a lot of Classic elements, there is so much history there, but it lends itself easily to a modern interior. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Some scratches and marks on the wood. The chairs have been reupholstered recently in premium fabric.

Scandinavian Cylindrical Tripod Floor Lamp, Scandinavia 1950s

Located in Utrecht, NL

This one-of-a-kind floor lamp is a delightfully distinctive model, with immediately recognizable details. Design in the mid-century years was fuelled by the development of materials and technology with stunning results as seen in this floor lamp design. Scandinavian furniture was made with mostly light-coloured materials and some furniture shapes included elements of asymmetry, or having two sides that were not completely even and balanced. This can be seen here as well, as the lamp’s black lacquered metal structure isn’t perfectly symmetrical, instead, the “cage” surrounding the lampshade spirals downwards. The fluted lampshade has a cylindrical shape and is made of a light coloured fabric. It is stretched over metal wires that create the lines. Thanks to its large, almost see-through quality, the warm light is diffused evenly when the lamp is switched on. Furthermore, the fabric shade pairs well with the colder metal structure. The tripod legs stem out from a ball-shaped joint, and also end in small, brass sphere feet. While the design dates to the 1950s, it has an interesting, almost futuristic modern...
