Dansk Vintage is pleased to introduce the Danish Retro chair collection to Australia.

Danish Retro is a Danish company established in 2015 and is based on owner/managing director Torben Ohlsen’s passion for authentic vintage Danish designer chairs.

The company is committed to the preservation and exposure of lesser known Danish 1940s and 50s chair designs and to bringing recognition to their designers.

Danish Retro’s mission is to identify each chair with help from the Danish public and media and to pay royalties to either the designers or their surviving families.

More importantly the aim is to honour these Danish designers for their beautiful designs and to tell their stories to the world.

Until a chair has been identified, it is given a product number with ‘U’ in front indicating ‘unknown designer’, it will then be renamed after identification.

The first chairs, U3 and U4, have recently changed name to CFB 52 crediting designer Chresten Findahl Brodersen’s set of chairs from 1952 (see original b/w photo). He lived 1920-1989.

Danish Retro has so far relaunched six strikingly beautiful designer chairs from the golden era of Danish midcentury design.

And more are coming! The chairs are constructed with no expense spared using the same quality cabinet maker’s methods as the original examples.

The armrests and legs are made of European oak with a natural finish. Comfort and high quality upholstery characterise these chairs.

Customers can choose from three price categories of Danish quality fabrics from Kvadrat and Gabriel.  Prices currently range from $1440 to 3540.

Lead time varies from 8 weeks. We can advise on freight Australia wide.
