About the Item

This handsome pair of teak armchairs, attributed to Erik Kirkegaard for Høng Stolefabrik, captures the warm, organic spirit of 1950s Danish Modern design. Each chair features a sculptural, low-slung teak frame with gracefully curved armrests that flow seamlessly into the back and legs, creating a light yet substantial silhouette. The generously proportioned seats and backs are upholstered in their original geometric fabric with bold southwest-inspired motifs in warm earth tones of orange, yellow, blue, and cream — a striking and playful contrast to the rich teak wood. Erik Kirkegaard was a talented Danish designer active in the mid-20th century, known for producing well-crafted, ergonomic seating for manufacturers like Høng Stolefabrik. His work emphasized clean lines, quality materials, and a comfortable, inviting aesthetic that remains highly collectible today. These versatile armchairs work beautifully as accent seating in a living room, reading nook, or lounge area. Their compact scale and sculptural presence make them ideal for both classic Danish Modern and eclectic mid-century interiors. A rare and characterful pair of 1950s Danish teak armchairs attributed to Erik Kirkegaard for Høng Stolefabrik — where bold original fabric meets timeless teak craftsmanship. ---Dimensions--- Width: 26 in / 66.04 cm Depth: 26 in / 66.04 cm Height: 32 in / 81.28 cm Seat Height: 17.5 in / 44.45 cm Arm Height: 26 in / 66.04 cm This set of iconic armchairs designed by Erik Kirkegaard, restored two decades prior by the previous owners, is in remarkably excellent condition showing only minor surface scratches (the worst of which can be seen in the detail photos provided) as well as two minor joint repairs (also shown in the detail photos provided) but showing no other signs of wear and the variegated woodgrains of the teak are absolutely stunning in natural light. The upholstery, in a custom southwest woolen fabric, is in excellent condition given it's age showing no stains, tears or odors whatsoever. This set of armchairs is incredibly comfortable, structurally solid and ready for a lifetime more of use. Please view all photos and natural light video provided for details on this set's current condition. We're limited on the amount of media we can post so additional photos and videos are available upon request.
