AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Absolutely stunning and exceptional 2-seat lounge chair set in solid teakwood in a fantastic, sculptural design with beautifully curved, organic forms by Georg Thams for A/S Vejen Polsterfabrik, Denmark, 1960s.

What makes these chairs so special is the impressive combination of the sturdy, solid teak frame and the incredibly elegant, flowing lines.

The generously sized wooden elements are crafted with care and are beautifully finished. Especially impressive are the softly rounded edges and the harmonious, almost seamless transitions between armrests, legs, and backrest.

Despite their massiveness and powerful appearance, the chairs possess a nearly delicate elegance. A fascinating interplay of strength and lightness, massiveness and soft, organic shapes.

The warm tones and the beautiful grain of the teak further underline the exceptional craftsmanship and the timeless character of these pieces of furniture.

The generously padded seating areas and backrests provide excellent seating comfort and make the chairs not only visually a highlight but also incredibly comfortable to sit in.

A truly fantastic and extraordinary pair of chairs with a strong architectural and sculptural presence, beautiful from every angle.

Seller's Story

Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies. Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt. To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty. And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives. We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy. We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people. Bülent Usta & Sarah-Larissa Kolmeder
