Set of 2 Danish Modern black leather armchairs and matching table from the Modus series, designed by Kristian Vedel for Willadsen Møbelfabrik. This 1960s Scandinavian Modern set features gorgeous rosewood frames with curved details and minimalistic legs. Original black lived-in leather upholstery, slung arms, and goose feather filling make the armchairs exceptionally comfortable. The petite proportions of the square glass-top table pair perfectly to create a casual seating area. Denmark, 1960s.

Vedel has been awarded 1st prize by Copenhagen Cabinetmakers Guild (1947), Louisiana Museum Prize (1957), gold medal at La Triennale di Milano, the Design Award at Interplast in London (1961), and the Lunning Prize (1962).
