Title: Set of Six ( 6 ) "Eva" Dining Chairs w/ Sculpted Backs in Teak by Niels Koefoed for Koefoeds Hornslet, Denmark, c. 1960s
About: Introducing a expansive set of six iconic "Eva" dining chairs, designed by Niels Koefoed for Koefoed Hornslet, crafted in Denmark during the 1960s. These chairs exemplify the clean lines and elegance of Danish Mid-Century Modern design. Each frame has been expertly refinished with a matte lacquer coating for a subtle sheen and added protection. The set features brand new high-density foam and is ready for virtually any upholstery of your choosing for a truly personalized finish.
Danish furniture designer and factory owner Niels Koefoed created a wide range of dining room furniture in the typical Danish Modern style during the Mid-Century period. Following in the footsteps of his father Einar Koefoed, who founded Koefoeds Hornslet in 1926, Niels began designing furniture in the mid 1950's. By the early 60's Niels Koefoed was owner and operator of Koefoeds Hornslet as well as chief designer creating some of his most iconic models such as the "Eva", "Lis" and "Ingrid" chairs (all named after important women in Niels' life).
Koefoed Hornselt, named after both the founder's name and the town it was located in, was initially dedicated to producing fine furniture, although Niels’ most popular designs eventually pushed dining room chair production to the fore of their business. In 2004, Koefoed Hornslet moved production to Thailand, where it continues to this very day. Although a number of Koefoed’s designs are produced by furniture manufacturer Casø, it is the original Mid-Century era productions that are in great demand on the vintage market.
With their sleek design and high-quality craftsmanship, this set is sure to elevate your dining space and provide comfort for decades to come. Make them yours today and customize the seats to fit your space perfectly.
