This sofa was produced by ab trensums fåtöljfabrik from sweden around 1950s/1960s. Like most furniture from scandinavia, it was also made with great care and accuracy, which we could observe throughout the renovation process. Extremely interesting design and beautiful line that’s still fresh and enchanting nowadays. The sofa has undergone a thorough upholstery renovation, the seats have been completely replaced and the new upholstery fabric comes from danish brand kvadrat. The textile we have used in this particular project is „hallingdal65” in grey and brown melange. „hallingdal65” is one of kvadrat’s all times classics, produced continuously since 1960s. It reminds very much of the original fabric that you can see in the last picture from an archival catalogue. The fabric used on the inside is linen combined with cotton. The furniture is set on a beautifully shaped teakwood frame that has also been restored and finished in clear wax-oil. This particular design is extremely rare to be found nowadays and is probably the only one available for sale worldwide at the moment.
johannes andersen was born in aarhus, denmark in 1903. He apprenticed as a cabinet maker, becoming certified in 1922. By the mid-1930s, when danish modern design rose in popularity beyond denmark, he opened his own workshop. He continued to work with other design houses as well, including cfc silkeborg in denmark and trensum in sweden. Johannes andersen garnered international acclaim in his lifetime that is still accorded to him today. Current collectors pay top dollar for his furniture, in appreciation of its exceptional quality and visually stunning design elements. This piece has an attribution mark,
