NOW SOLD 4 Kai Kristiansen DANISH MODERN Style ARM CHAIRS Solid TEAK & Labeled
For sale here is a set of 4 of Vintage Danish Modern Style Solid Teak Arm Chairs. They have a very faint Made in Denmark stamp on them. I can find no discernible makers mark (there are some faded stamps but I can’t make them out). However I have seen these identical chairs attributed to the Designer Kai Kristiansen several different places on the internet. . Here are a set on 1st dibs. http://www.1stdibs.com/furniture_item_detail.php?id=385743&cur_tab= (yes that is 2600.00 for six).
Original upholstery is in nice shape, no tears ect. Three of the chairs are in excellent shape, but one has a large chunk of one of the back rails broken off. It is still structurally sound, but would need repair to look perfect again. Fantastic Arch arms. The wood shows some slight character wear from use over the years, but over all is in very nice condition, with a the great patina you expect from great vintage pieces. The design and form of the chairs screams classic Scandinavian design. Don’t miss out. They would greatly compliment any Eames Era Mid Century modern or Danish modern living space. Or add a slightly retro accent to any contemporary room. $ SOLD
