NOW SOLD 3 Solid Teak Dinning Chair Labeled Danish Vintage Circa early 1960's

THESE ARE NOW SOLDFor sale here are three stunning vintage Solid teak dinning chairs. Each chair is stamped “Made In Denmark” on the bottom. Although these chair do not have a makers label on them it is clear whoever designed them clearly was influenced by the contemporary designs of Han Wegner, Arne Vodder Peter Hvidt & Finn Juhl. The frames are constructed out of solid teak, with fantastic sculptural lines. The frame does have a few spots of honest usage wear, but nothing abusive at all. They have developed that fantastic patina that can only come with age. No tears or rips or tears in the upholstery. As for the age of these, the people I bought them off said they recall their parents saying they purchased these chairs and a teak table sometime in the late 1950’s early 1960’s in Montreal. I do have the table as well (will eventually be sold separately here as time allows) and it has an import label from Denmark to a Danish design import store called The Danish House Place Ville Marie, Montreal 2. So I think the story holds up and these are true vintage pieces, not some of the later 1970’s pieces that were of lower quality. Each chair measures 18 ½ inches wide, 17 inches deep (measured off the wall), and is 31 ½ inches high at the back. The seat itself measures 18 inches high at the knee. If you are looking for quality vintage classic Danish Modern design these are the real deal. NOW SOLD
