Mid century dining chairs
11 June 2022
Description

I have 6 I believe rosewood dining chairs from 1960s. I attained them from an estate sale in which I was interested in a sideboard. The set came with a dining table and the six chairs. The dining table is Moblfabrik and is rosewood. Underneath the chairs is stamped “made in Denmark“ most are difficult to read – I think it might be burden. They are in perfect condition in the sense that there are no scratches or defects in any of these chairs. The thin upholstery over the seat is not the best but the structure of the chairs is amazing. The chairs didn’t really fit my style so I kept the sideboard and table but bought new chairs

Dimensions

High back chairs are 39.5 inches tall in back and widestpart of seat is 19 inches. The seat is 18 inches off the ground.

Provenance

The whole set that I purchased was owned by an Asian family who had their dining set in a typical dining room but they did not allow children or family in the room and so there for all the pieces were very well protected over the years.. They purchased some new in the early 1960s.
