These chairs were created by Asko, the Finnish furniture manufacturing company founded in 1918 by Aukusti Asko Avonius, known for the production of high-quality furniture. By 1930, the company had grown to be the largest furniture chain in Finland and the largest supplier of furniture in the Nordic countries. This pair of Model “217” or “Continent” armchairs belongs to this period of Finnish furniture design, combining the generous comfort of traditional upholstered seating with a more restrained and modern appearance.
These armchairs embody comfort and elegance in equal measure. With their soft curves and rounded bodies, they cradle the sitter in a harmonious and just as stylish embrace. The defining feature of these lounge chairs is their enveloping design, which creates a sense of cosy intimacy and warmth. Each chair has a broad, rounded backrest that curves forward at the sides into the upholstered arms. The soft curves that define their shape not only evoke inviting comfort but also serve a practical purpose, as the curvature follows the natural contours of the human body. The chairs appear open and welcoming thanks to the arms and backs curving outwards, while the deep seats and generous padding emphasise their comfortable character. The soft outline of the design remains clearly defined, enhanced by the dark moss-green upholstery. The fabric has a rich, textured surface that accentuates the gentle curves and gives the chairs a warm, inviting appearance. The seats extend forward between the rounded arms, with their upholstered fronts creating a uniform image. Short wooden legs support the chairs, their warm brown colour contrasting beautifully with the green fabric. In the absence of additional ornamentation, the focus stays on the distinctive shape, supported by functionality and comfort.
As part of Asko's furniture production, the model “217” represents an interesting chapter in the development of modern seating. With their cosy appearance, distinctive bodies and appealing material combination, the armchairs bring warmth and character to an interior while retaining the comfort and practicality for which they were designed.

The Brutalist movement of the mid-20th century was known for its use of bold forms and imperfect organic materials. The period gave rise to balanced, straightforward designs both in architecture and interiors. The skilled craftsmanship behind the construction of Brutalist furniture resulted in beautiful statement pieces, which celebrated and showcased the striking features of raw materials like stone.
The design of this coffee table distills down to its one material. Both the top and the base are made from charcoal coloured stone with an appealing pattern and textural surface. The grain of the stone is not merely a surface detail; it becomes an integral part of the design. As a result, the impression is quite elemental and striking. The roundness of the top is complemented by a more angular element in the shape of a tripod base. Both forms are simple in appearance not to avert the attention from the material. The stone surface shows the handwork that shaped it, making it one-of-a-kind. While uneven, the top still remains functional as it can hold glasses or plates. Overall, this coffee table is striking in balancing large volumes with clean geometrical lines.
Coffee tables, in general, serve as design staples in living spaces for a multitude of reasons: beyond their utilitarian function, they anchor a room, creating a focal point around which furniture and conversation revolve. This piece is ideal to set the tone of a space serving as an accent or complementing a modern interior.

Club chairs, often recognised by their deep seats, sleek lines and wide armrests, originated in French gentlemen’s clubs in the early 20th century. They were created for cosiness and relaxation, typically featuring full-body upholstery and sturdy frames that allowed for comfortable seating over extended periods of time. Attributed to Jean Saint-Georges, this pair reflects the rich history of the club chair while introducing the simpler forms associated with mid-century modernism.
These chairs each feature a strikingly voluptuous body, combining both comfort and bold aesthetics. The chairs' plushness and generously rounded arms provide an inviting and enveloping seating experience. Each armchair has a broad, deep seat framed by substantial upholstered sides that curve gently around the front. The armrests are particularly distinctive, with their softly rolled upper edges continuing towards the backrests in a smooth, uninterrupted line. The backs are wide, with separate upholstered cushions providing additional support and comfort. The low, wide seats emphasise a relaxed posture, making the chairs perfect for lounging and unwinding. The upholstery is a beautiful muted blue fabric with a soft, textured surface that accentuates the gentle curves and generous proportions of the chairs. Its uniform colour allows the shape of the bodies to remain the focus of the design. The seats are fitted with thick, rectangular cushions, while subtle piping along the edges defines the different upholstered sections. Short wooden feet remain mostly concealed beneath the chairs, subtly lifting their substantial bodies from the floor.
The curves and material choice make this a striking pair that can bring warmth and character to a variety of interiors, from a comfortable living room to a more formal lounge or library. The chairs' main decorative element is the design itself, combining traditional club chair comfort and European mid-century design, equally captivating and practical.

In the design landscape of Europe, the mid-20th century emerged as a golden era, where form seamlessly intertwined with function, giving rise to timeless pieces that continue to captivate contemporary sensibilities. One such enchanting piece from this era is this graceful floor lamp, a testament to the region's commitment to craftsmanship and new ideas and forms.
Rather than seeking attention through ornament, designers often worked to achieve a quiet refinement through high-quality materials and precision. This floor lamp materialises these ideals both in terms of visual and technical quality. The lamp features three slender stems that rise from a dynamic base. The brass necks allow the shades to be adjusted independently, so their openings can face outward. The tapered fabric shades widen slightly, continuing the movement of the brass arms. Their soft textile surfaces contrast with the polished metal and dark body, while their relatively small scale leaves the structure in focus. The piece is fundamentally functional, at the same time having enough character to stand on its own, making it a distinctive example of European lighting from the 1950s.
Its unique construction gives the lamp a far stronger presence than its slender proportions might suggest. Even when switched off, its profile makes it an expressive object in the room; illuminated, the opposing shades become the focus of the composition, adding charm to any interior.
Condition:
In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The lamp has recently been rewired and reconditioned. The shade is a later replacement. Due to the nature and age of the brass, the item has some marks and scratches, and discolouration. This lamp is compatible with an E26 / E27 (standard) fitting. All lighting can be converted for US usage.

Bas van Pelt (1900–1945) was a Dutch furniture and interior designer whose work combined traditional craftsmanship with the principles of early modernism. While Van Pelt's creative work was primarily dominated by the Hague School, this armchair is the result of his more mature design period, characterised by natural materials, in order to create a friendly and inviting appearance that combines the warmth of solid oak with the distinctive texture of woven rush.
The construction of this model is simple at its core, but thanks to certain details, it is a playful representation of early Dutch modernism. While made of solid oak, this armchair has an open feel to it thanks to the horizontal spaces on the back that divide the three rush panels. The tall, slightly inclined backrest is framed by two straight wooden uprights, creating a strong vertical outline that contrasts with the more fluid shape of the armrests. The curved lines of the arms contrast nicely with the straight lines of the frame and clearly show wonderful craftsmanship. Each armrest extends outward in a gentle wave, giving the chair a particularly individual character. The rush weaving on the back adds textural interest, bringing the appealing roughness of nature to the design. Its closely arranged vertical strands create a warm, sandy surface, beautifully complemented by the oak's rich brown colour and the similar tone of the upholstery. The legs and stretchers are simple in their design, serving a primarily structural role and allowing the rush weaving and the wooden construction to stand out. The legs are connected by a gently curved wooden rail beneath the seat, while the rear supports continue naturally from the backrest. Thanks to the well-chosen proportions and the combination of natural materials, this armchair provides great comfort while maintaining a remarkable appearance.
Bas van Pelt's progressive designs were, in many ways, ahead of his time. The Dordrecht-born designer's furniture models are quite rare, with examples preserved in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Furniture pieces like this easy chair stand out through their unique textures and materials, as well as their classic charm. Its generous backrest and comfortable seat make it particularly suitable for a living room, library or reading area, where the craftsmanship can be appreciated from every angle.

The 20th century saw the rise of brilliant designers, like Steen Østergaard, working to create furniture of the highest quality that explored truly modern shapes and forms. Østergaard sought to combine comfort and elegance to achieve timeless designs that remain iconic examples of style and skill to this day.
Immediately, these chairs captivate with their cosy and stylish silhouette. The shell bodies cradle the occupant, providing a sense of intimacy and comfort that transcends mere functionality. The mid-century modern aesthetic is elegantly expressed through clean lines and organic curves, creating a harmonious balance between form and function. The designer managed to create pieces that seamlessly integrate into contemporary living spaces while preserving the warmth and character of natural materials, ideals deeply rooted in the Danish tradition. The wooden frames of these chairs showcase the skillful artistry of Steen Østergaard. The tripod legs, with beautiful joinery, not only add a touch of sophistication but also exemplify the meticulous attention to detail and aesthetic balance. The upholstery of the pair further enhances the allure. Meticulously chosen fabrics not only contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal but also emphasise the commitment to creating pieces that age gracefully.
Danish modern chairs have not only stood the test of time but continue to inspire contemporary designers and homeowners worldwide. Their enduring popularity is a testament to the genius of Danish modern design, based on both form and function, resulting in pieces that are as comfortable as they are stylish.
