The Danish designer Børge Mogensen designed a whole series of furniture aptly named after the Øresund bridge which connects Denmark and Sweden; referring to the collaboration between the Danish designer and Swedish furniture maker.
The quality of the chairs is truly stunning. Designed and crafted in the spirit of Shaker furniture, working to create heaven on earth. Key elements are functionalism, simplicity, quality craftsmanship, use of natural and local materials, proportion and balance, modesty and humility.
In essence a celebration of honest design, where form follows function, and beauty arises from simplicity, quality, and purposeful craftsmanship.
Chairs have no attribution mark and have no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history.
