About the Item

This classic love-seat sofa by Danish designer and cabinetmaker: Alfred Christensen was designed and produced in the 1950s at his own company: Slagelse Mobelvaerk in Denmark. The sofa has been completely refubsihed by our team in London with new sheepskin upholstery in Maple colour. Alfred Christensen made his name as lead designer, cabinetmaker and owner of the famed furniture makers: Slagelse Møbelværk which he founded with his brother Alfred in 1931. As head of design, he had a great eye for up and coming architects in Denmark, commissioning work from the likes of: Arne Vodder, Kurt Olsen, Ib Kofod-Larsen and Nils & Eva Koppel. His own designs epitomised the middle-ground between classical and modernist styles which defined the post-war period in Denmark. He had a particular talent for creating functional yet sophisticated upholstered sofas and armchairs and as a manufacturer Slagelse became renowned for their quality of craftsmanship
