An elegant pair of Danish Modern ‘Colonial’ armchairs designed by Ole Wanscher in the 1960s. These armchairs feature slim mahogany frames in a polished burgundy finish, camel toned leather seats, and matching removable back cushions. A fantastic example of the craftsmanship and attention to detail that Ole Wanscher is famous for. Denmark, 1960s.

Ole Wanscher was integral to the aesthetic and functionality of Danish Modern design in the 20th Century. Studying under Kaare Klint at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, he worked in Klint’s design studio prior to becoming an independent furniture designer.

Wanscher is well known for his classic and contemporary designs. In 1958, the Danish newspaper, Politiken, wrote the following: “Owning a Wanscher chair is an adventure every day, and will be so even several hundred years from now, for this is how long it lasts”. To this day, Wanscher’s modern classics are still coveted for their exceptional detail and quality materials.
