Johannes Andersen
Denmark has a long tradition of producing some of the most acclaimed furniture designers of the 20th century. Johannes Andersen is no exception — his name is synonymous with mid-century modern design. He elevated Scandinavian modernism’s prioritization of practicality and space conservation to new heights and worked with luxurious woods like teak, mahogany and rosewood for a range of designs that merged grace and function.
After completing his cabinetmaker apprenticeship in his early 20s, Andersen began to design for several furniture makers, including CFC Silkeborg and Trensum. A few years later, he opened his own workshop and enjoyed success from the outset. Free of the constraints of working under another studio, Andersen quickly developed his own, distinctive style that drew on Danish functionalism and human-centered design.
After the end of World War II, Andersen noticed the worldwide postwar consumption boom and the burgeoning interest in Scandinavian modern design. He took full advantage of this and began to sell his shapely and eye-pleasing tables, chairs and sideboards to markets outside of Denmark. Other Scandinavian manufacturers took notice of Andersen’s work, which led to many successful, career-long collaborations for the furniture maker.
Like Finn Juhl and Alvar Aalto, Andersen was deeply drawn to organic shapes and flowing lines. He transformed furniture’s traditionally square or rectangular panels and surfaces — like the tops of coffee tables and seat-backs of dining room chairs — into imaginative half-moons with rounded corners, beveled edges and fluid contours. His unexpected use of curves is the highlight of his sleek Capri line for Trensum and can be found in his comfortable saddle-shaped Allegra bar stool and playful but elegant Smile coffee table, which sports an anthropomorphic grin in the slot intended to hold magazines.
Andersen wanted his furniture to be compact — he experimented with reducing the footprints of bulky furniture, and his simple, iconic credenzas, sideboards and folding bar cabinets were born. These and other vintage Johannes Andersen furnishings are in high demand today by collectors and mid-century modern enthusiasts all over the world.

Uldum Møbelfabrik
Danish furniture manufacturer Uldum Møbelfabrik has worked with many of the leading designers of Scandinavian modernism to bring their visions to life. They include the thoughtful mid-century modern work of Danish designer Johannes Andersen, renowned for his sophisticated use of high-quality wood for seating and tables.
Andersen’s designs with Uldum Møbelfabrik maximized functionality without sacrificing a sense of fluidity in their shape. Typical of Scandinavian modern design, many of the center tables and dining chairs Andersen created with Uldum Møbelfabrik used a range of hardwoods such as teak or rosewood. Designers and manufacturers alike have favored these materials for their durability and stunning wood grains.
20th-century Danish manufacturers and designers were masters of seating, especially chairs. Uldum Møbelfabrik chairs encapsulate all the hallmarks of Scandinavian design, offering curving lines, exceptional comfort and unparalleled quality.

- Non-Serial Model 275 S-Chair by Verner Panton in Bent Fineer, Denmark, 1956By Verner PantonLocated in Hellouw, NLThis extraordinarily impressive chair was designed by Danish designer Verner Panton in 1956, only to see the light of day ten years later. The technology to put this chair into production was simply not sufficient at the time. Gerrit Rietveld had tried much earlier in 1932 to manufacture his Zig-Zag chair from one piece of Material. German author and expert on Panton's oeuvre, Mathias Remele, notes that the IDEA may have originated after Panton's collaboration with August Sommer. A German company specialized in curved laminated wood that produced its Barboy in 1963. The Thonet brothers finally took up the Challenge and produced two versions of this chair. Model 275 and 276 respectively with a round backrest. This specific chair is a non-serial production and has a marvellous provenance. It was used for the pavilion for wooden constructions at the 'Debau exhibition fair in Essen' in the sixties/seventies. The chair consists of fourteen layers of glued, bent and pressed rounded veneer...Category
