Title: Set of Two (2) Danish Modern Lounge Chairs w/ Cane Backs by Ib Kofod Larsen for Selig, Denmark, c. 1960's

About: Introducing a true Danish Modern masterpiece: a set of two cane back lounge chairs designed by the incomparable Ib Kofod Larsen for Selig. This iconic set has been fully restored and newly upholstered, making it the perfect addition to any modern home. Constructed from European walnut and cane, this armchair set is both durable and stylish.

Ib Kofod-Larsen was a venerated architect who formed part of a movement known as Danish Modern. Larsen was a purist and considered himself as more of an artisan than an architect or designer and his extensive catalog is proof of that. He was respected for having an exceptional understanding of materials and an eye for the potential of the wood and the quality of the raw materials he used. He often worked in different types of wood – mainly teak and palisander in combination with real leather which is why we chose to add genuine leather hides to these chairs in homage to the original design and intention.

The Selig Manufacturing Co was at the cutting edge of contemporary furniture during the mid 20th century. Selig Furniture was founded by Mendell Selig and Samuel Wexler in Gardner, Massachusetts in 1931. By the 1950s the company had grown to become one of America's leading importers and producers of contemporary furniture. The company focused on the high end designs being produced in Denmark and other Scandinavian countries. Their product range epitomized the simple, elegant and airy forms typical of post-war Danish furniture design on display in this exquisite set's aesthetic and form.

This armchair set is a piece of both Danish and Mid Century Modern history, adding a touch of twentieth century elegance to any space. Add this one-of-a-kind set to your collection today and elevate your home's aesthetic to new heights.

Condition Details: This iconic set of armchairs by Ib Kofod Larsen has recently undergone a comprehensive and transformative restoration process. The solid European walnut frames have been completely sanded and refinished in a rich fruitwood stain and show only one crack repair located on one of the backs (as can be seen in the detail photos provided) but showing no deep scratches, gouges or discoloration whatsoever.

The seat cushions have been recovered in a black genuine leather hide and feature new medium density foam for maximum comfort. The cane backs did have some tears that were repaired but still shows some discoloration as well as a subtle stain on the back side of one seat back (both blemishes can be seen in the detail photos provided).

These exceptional lounge chairs are ultra comfortable, structurally sound and ready for a literal lifetime more of use. Please view all photos for details on this chair set's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
