AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Danish Modern Foldable Wooden Wall Valet with Fabric Back Panel, circa 1970

A wall-mounted foldable valet designed for coats and garments, executed in the restrained functional language of Danish Modern design. The piece combines a solid wood frame with a pivoting wooden hanger arm and a fabric-lined back panel, allowing the valet to fold flat against the wall when not in use. The construction emphasizes clarity of form, practical use, and material balance rather than ornament.

Maker and origin
Denmark.

Date
Circa 1970.

Style and use
Danish Modern domestic wall valet. Designed to hold jackets, coats, or garments in bedrooms, dressing areas, or entrances. The folding mechanism allows efficient use of space.

Condition
Very good vintage condition. The wooden surfaces show minor surface wear consistent with age. The folding mechanism operates smoothly. The fabric back panel is intact, clean, and evenly tensioned. No structural damage or later modifications observed.

Value justification
Danish Modern wall-mounted valets from the late 20th century are sought after for their combination of compact engineering and timeless utility. This example retains its original folding structure, integrated hanger, and fabric backing, which together demonstrate thoughtful design solutions characteristic of Scandinavian furniture production. Its balanced proportions and preserved condition support both decorative and functional value.

Production context
Produced during the height of Danish Modern design, when furniture makers focused on practical household objects that could integrate seamlessly into everyday interiors. Foldable wall valets like this were developed to meet urban living needs, emphasizing space efficiency and honest materials.

Preservation state
Original construction preserved. Natural patina present. Fabric panel original. No evidence of restoration or replacement parts.

Dimensions
Height: 35 cm
Width: 54 cm
Depth (folded): 7 cm
