Three-Seater Bouclé Sofa by a Danish Cabinetmaker, Denmark ca 1940s (sold)


























Three-Seater Bouclé Sofa by a Danish Cabinetmaker, Denmark ca 1940s (sold)
This beautiful Danish three-seater sofa recalls the Art Deco style of the 1930s with the recognizable touch of Danish Modernism. Thanks to its elegantly curved shape, this type of sofa is often referred to as the “banana” style.
Apart from the visual appearance, the exquisite craftsmanship of this sofa echoes Art Deco as well. Many of the well-known Danish architects felt the urge to try their hands at “Nordic Art Deco”, even though the style’s focus on luxury and decorative elements is in its nature in opposition to the ideas behind Danish design and constitutes a creative contradiction to the period’s streamlined modernism. Nevertheless, in combination with the unadorned style of Danish mid-century modern design, this sofa brings together the best of both styles. There is something more inviting about rounded shapes, which is true for the legs as well. The three pairs of short and rounded, stained wood legs add that modern, organic feel, balancing out the voluptuous profile of the sofa.
The masterful sense of proportions, the curved back and the soft seat and back guarantee functionality and comfort. This sofa is upholstered in a lovely and stylish bouclé fabric, accentuating the defining curves, creating a luxurious feel and look.

Originating in the postwar years, the Mid Century Modern movement embraced clean lines, organic forms, and an honest use of materials, rejecting the heavy ornamentation of earlier eras in favour of functional beauty. By the 1960s, European furniture designers had moved past the stark functionalism of early modernism and began exploring new ideas of comfort through foam and plush forms. The result was a generation of sofas that felt architectural yet approachable - models that defined a room while welcoming people into it.
There is a great balance in the execution of this sofa, which is achieved through the clever modular design. The curving form is welcoming, and unmistakable of the era’s design inclinations. The modular form allows for the sofa to be rearranged to fit into a multitude of spaces and the generous back and seat cushions exude an unmatched level of comfort, making this piece perfect for cosy lounging and conversing. The texture of the upholstery gives the sofa a modern edge while also enhancing the generous size of the seats and back. This five-seater was evidently constructed with extraordinary care; allowing it to be placed in any environment to enhance the visual quality of its surroundings. The upholstery adds a modern edge to the natural wood, while keeping the rustic, mid-century look in the focus.
From every single angle, this sofa offers stunning lines and a rich texture. Above all, furniture designers of the era believed that design could certainly be used to improve people's lives. Looking at this model, this was evidently a not too far-fetched ideal.

French industrial designer Oliver Mourgue obtained his degree in Interior Design at the prestigious École Boulle, from where he went on to pursue his passion in furniture design at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. After training in Finland and Sweden, he then began his collaboration with Airborne International, one of France’s most successful and influential design companies of the modernist era.
In 1965 he designed the ‘Djinn Series’, inspired by the figure of the ‘djinni’ (genie), a mystical creature of Arabian fairy tales capable of morphing into human or animal form. This fluid uncertainty is clearly visible in the elegant shape of the daybed, where curved edges and softly folded ends connect seamlessly with the low-slung seating. The carefully crafted ergonomic design moulds perfectly to a resting human figure. Without distinctive breaks and different components, the daybed suggests effortless comfort - its relaxed form inviting the person for moments of unhurried rest, aligning with the decade’s easing of societal mores. The strapped rectangular pillow at the headrest is a unique complement that adds visual interest and breaks the flat surface of the piece. This daybed has been reupholstered in a premium fabric, which guarantees outstanding comfort and softness. The light colour of the upholstery, covering every part of the daybed also contributes to its uniqueness, truly making it a statement piece in any interior.
The ‘Djinn Series’ gained immense fame after the ‘Djinn Chair’ (1965) was featured in Stanley Kubrick’s film 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). The vivid red chairs - used to furnish the sterile Hilton lobby of Space Station Five - granted a truly futuristic yet functional ambiance for the room. With an eye-catching form, this daybed is a visually outstanding piece that will transform any environment with its bold character.

This rare oak settee is a delightful piece even if measured against the other seating models in the repertoire of the French designer duo, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron. This model truly deserves adjectives such as unique or even iconic, both in terms of quality and design. It visually represents the very reason Votre Maison, the French duo’s company significantly influenced French design history.
From every angle, this settee’s design has unique solutions that are unmistakable. Starting with the duo’s trademark oak frame to the sculptural legs and backrests, while also featuring details that are one-of-a-kind. Such a detail is the curving seat and its joinery, that shows expert craftsmanship and creativity. The curve also serves as a table, adding much functionality and practicality to the sculptural look. The unusual seat resembles a slatted bench, while the two, individual backrests break the flat surfaces and emerge like thrones. The spindles enhance this appearance, especially with the longer, middle spindles that also serve as back legs. The armrests and legs are sculpted with precision to serve a double purpose: an aesthetic role, and a functional one. The corner segment adds a lot of openness to the design, preventing it from looking heavy. The curving shape and thick, comfortable seat and back cushions provide plenty of comfort, therefore this settee is perfect for cosy lounging.
Guillerme et Chambron’s work at Votre Maison not only represents the fusion of function and form, but also exemplifies the mid-century modern aesthetic - which they played a pivotal role in shaping. Their emphasis on quality craftsmanship and the use of noble materials like oak has undeniably left a lasting imprint in the world of furniture design, solidifying their legacy in the French design landscape during the mid-century era. Together, they defined new furnishings concepts. As this brilliant settee shows, well-crafted structures, polished wood and thick cushions created the now world-famous reputation of their seating designs.

About the Designer:
Robert Guillerme graduated in 1934 from the École Boulle where he excelled in architecture and furniture design. After the Second World War he moved to Lille, in the north of France, where he decorated homes and designed furniture for the well regarded Rogier workshops.
In 1948, Guillerme was joined by his long-time friend, decorator Jacques Chambron in Lille. The following year Guillerme and Chambron met master cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, owner of a woodworking shop and the company Votre Maison was born. Together, they defined and imposed a new furniture concept. Thanks to their distinctive creativity, originality, and quality, the Votre Maison quickly became well-known.
The Votre Maison marked the history of French design. Guillerme drew the furniture designs while Chambron played the part of salesman, welcoming and advising clients. The power duo was complemented by Dariosecq, whose workshop took charge of the manufacturing. Together, they defined new furnishings concepts. Well-crafted chair back, polished wood and thick cushions make the reputation of their armchairs and sofas. Votre Maison continued to produce furniture right into the 20th century, with Jacques’s son Hervé Chambron, a designer and graduate of the École Boulle, having taken the over in 1983. ~H.

The iconic “Soriana” three-seater sofa was designed by the Italian designer duo, Afra and Tobia Scarpa in 1969. Besides its innovative manufacturing, visually,Soriana brings sophisticated and leisurely comfort to any home.
This post-modern sofa was manufactured by Cassina as part of the eponymous line that reached the coveted ‘iconic’ title soon after its launch. The award-winning design features three front metal clamps by which all soft curves and loose leather upholstery are held together, a particularly original detail that creates a sense of barely contained softness. The Soriana collection was meant to express beauty and comfort by using a whole bundle of fabric held by chrome-plated steel clamps. The defining upholstered body features tufted buttons all over it, which visually sections the sofa, while also adding depth to accentuate the softness. The interesting pairing of the metal clamps with the luxurious dark fabric creates the nowadays especially coveted post-modern look. For all its casual overtures, this sofa model remains a statement piece — a true icon of contemporary, or just simply, design.
The “Soriana Chair” was the first piece designed in the collection, and for its design in 1970, it won the Compasso d'Oro, one of the most important design awards of that time. The design has been reissued by Cassina recently, with the aim of recovering and safeguarding the works of Afra and Tobia Scarpa.

The Soriana was created for the Italian manufacturing company Cassina, which is often credited with introducing industrial design to Italy and has built an international reputation for collaborating with some of the world’s most respected designers, including Afra and Tobia Scarpa.
The husband-and-wife duo’s products played an important role in the history of Italian Design and are thriving in the Mid-Century market. The Soriana sofa is a collectors’ piece and part of the history of Italian design, destined to increase in value with the time. A piece of true Italian Modernism. ~H.

Throughout the 20th century, Italian design managed to distinguish itself. The 1960s was a boom time in Italy especially, a decade of mass production and innovation that signaled the end of the post-war rebuilding programme. Still, one off designs and the overflow of creativity were just as present, giving birth to outstanding pieces such as this modular “Superonda” sofa.
The “Superonda” sofa, designed in 1967 by the radical Florentine design collective Archizoom Associati, and produced for Poltronova, is a pioneering piece that challenged the conventions of traditional furniture design. The Superonda blurs the line between object and artwork, inviting interaction rather than passive use. It can serve as a sofa, a bed, or a chaise, making it as versatile as it is visually striking. Composed of two interlocking, elements, the Superonda departs from the conventional frames, legs, and backs, instead offering a sculptural, modular form that can be arranged in multiple ways. Its bold, wave-like silhouette reflects the playfulness of the Italian Radical Design movement, a rebellion against bourgeois taste and rigid functionalism.
Produced by Poltronova, a manufacturer known for championing avant-garde Italian design, the Superonda remains an unforgettable piece in design history. Its enduring relevance lies in its conceptual boldness, embodying the ideals of a generation that sought to redefine the relationship between people and their environments. Today, the Superonda stands not only as a collectible design icon but as a symbol of radical creativity and the power of design to question societal norms.

Henning Kjærnulf was a Danish mid-century designer and architect whose work is associated with the broader Scandinavian modern movement. Although relatively little is known about his personal biography, his furniture designs reveal a strong commitment to craftsmanship and carefully structured forms. Kjærnulf worked with several Danish manufacturers and developed pieces that combined traditional woodworking with modern lines and sculpted forms.
This two-seater sofa reflects those qualities through its solid oak frame and clearly defined architectural presence. The most striking feature is the wooden side and back panels that come together to form a frame for the piece. The frame acts as both a structural support and a visual boundary for the seating area. These panels give the sofa a grounded, natural feel through the deep grain of the oak. The upholstery contrasts with this structure through a layered composition. The seat, backrest, arms are covered in green textile, while the cushions are upholstered in a striped fabric that introduces rhythm across the surface. The pattern emphasizes the geometric shape of the sofa constructed on straight lines. The combination of exposed oak structure and patterned upholstery produces a clear dialogue between rigid frame and soft interior. At the same time, the carving details as well as the metal studs placed alongside the frame provide another dimension of interest, proving the complexity and attention to detail of the maker.
Together, these elements create a piece that is both functional and visually distinctive. Through the use of different materials and balanced clarity of structure, this sofa offers a great example of mid-twentieth-century Nordic seating.

This beautiful Danish three-seater sofa features the recognizable touch of Danish Modernism: exquisite materials, craftsmanship, and an elegantly curved shape, because of which this type of sofa is often referred to as the “banana” or “boomerang” style.
The visual appearance of this sofa echoes Danish design and directs the eyes to the voluptuous body, that is the result of the exquisite craftsmanship. Many of the well-known Danish architects of the era felt the urge to try their hand at three-seater sofas, adhering to the period’s streamlined modernism. In combination with the unadorned styles of mid-century design, this sofa brings together the best attributes of the era. The rounded conical wood legs add an organic feel, while also matching the rounded profile of the sofa. The back legs differ from the front ones as they are tapered to reinforce the sofa’s stability. The masterful sense of proportions, the curved back and the soft upholstery guarantee functionality and comfort. While most curved sofas of the era feature tufting and other forms of decoration, this model is free from unnecessary ornamentation, resulting in a sleek, elegant and modern look. This sofa has been reupholstered in a premium light bouclé fabric, accentuating the stained wooden legs and the luxurious feel and look.
Derived from the French word meaning “curled” or “ringed,” bouclé provides a unique range of benefits; it is abundant in texture yet breathable. This durable fabric makes for an easy way to add instant texture and interest to any modern space, and despite its resurgence around 2020, is a timeless trend with longevity that will stand the test of time. Bouclé pairs incredibly well with curvilinear shapes as demonstrated by this sofa.

About the Designer:
This Danish-made sofa reflects the core traditions and ideals of Danish design, while recalling the shapes of the Art Deco movement. What both movements valued highly is the highest level of craftsmanship and attention to details.
Mid-century pieces such as this early sofa were of great design, using fantastic wood like teak or beech. The mid-century was the heyday of the production by master craftsmen. Mid-century Danish design is world-famous for the partnership between designer and manufacturer, resulting in ground-breaking creations. The Danish design idiom was centred on warm woods, quality fabrics and gentle yet robust support for the spine - qualities that engender contentment and well-being, a defining characteristic of Danish culture. The “Great Danes” believed furniture should be shorn of aesthetic detail and be an amalgam of form and function.
A master cabinet-maker is not a carpenter, as this was a rare breed of craftsman who had to be recognized by the Danish government after several years of toiling at his craft, as well as having to ace gruelling design competitions before becoming a master cabinet-maker. Since Denmark was a special instance of tempered industrialization, it managed to preserve sound traditions and continue to safeguard values of craftsmanship, materiality and usability.
Today, Danish furniture is sought after by collectors for classic looks, storied designs and solid quality, works that are truly soulful and timeless. ~H.

This model visually represents the very reason Votre Maison and Guillerme et Chambron significantly influenced French design history. From every angle, this sofa’s design has unique solutions that are unmistakable and blur the line between furniture and sculpture.
Featuring a solid oak frame with sharply angled arms, six legs, and vertical slat detailing along the backrest, this sofa is a hallmark of Guillerme et Chambron's structural language. The frame is striking through its composition, yet the look is enhanced even further thanks to the large, circular back cushions, which immediately draw the eye with their playful geometry. Like most of their designs, this sofa model displays a beautiful contrast between the wooden frame and the elegant light fabric of the seat and back cushions. The backrest - which is undoubtedly the main design element - consists of several spindles framed by oak rails on the top, sides and the bottom. The woodworking and joinery truly show the overall quality of this sofa, the frame is refined and the attention to the smallest detail shows the manufacturing skills of Guillerme et Chambron. The expert woodworking is especially visible in the armrests, their peculiar shape greatly adding to the visual interest of the sofa.
Guillerme et Chambron's work continues to resonate for its balance of charm, function, and artisan quality, all of which are on full display in this distinctive piece.

During the mid-20th century European designers turned their attention to rethinking domestic comfort, exploring how new ideas of form and proportion could transform the experience of sitting and living. Moving away from traditional ornament and into a culture of experimentation, they began focusing on honest materials, balanced lines, and structure. This was a period when modernism evolved into a human-centered vision of living.
This pair of modular sofas capture that spirit with its thoughtful interplay of geometry and tactility. The frames, crafted in solid wood with box joinery, celebrate craftsmanship while maintaining a striking simplicity. The low, grounded stance gives the pieces a quiet strength, while the broad seats invite relaxed, informal lounging. To complement the solid frame, the backrests feature circular cushions, an unexpected sculptural element that softens the sofas’ rectilinear frames and adds visual interest without unnecessary embellishment. Upholstered in richly textured bouclé fabric, the sofas pair a tactile, inviting surface with the clean lines of their timber base, achieving a compelling balance between warmth and restraint. The traditional joinery details are left visible, underscoring a mid-century belief in structural honesty and the inherent beauty of well-made construction.
As a pair, the sofas are both understated and iconic, a reminder that modern design is not about excess, but about clarity and intention. More than just a functional pair, they reflect a postwar European ethos that embraced innovation while remaining deeply connected to craft and the human experience of comfort.

This three-seater sofa exemplifies these ideals with quiet elegance. Its gentle curves encourage a relaxed posture while maintaining a beautiful silhouette that feels both modern and timeless. The fully upholstered body, wrapped in soft, textured fabric, creates a comfortable and tactile experience, while the deep button tufting along the seat and back adds a rich visual character that breaks up the volume with subtle sophistication. Its arms slope gently, balancing openness with support, while the wooden base gives the piece a light, floating quality despite its solid construction. The sofa’s proportions are carefully considered: wide enough to command presence in a room but refined enough to integrate into different interior styles, from minimalist to eclectic.
The sofa offers a place to gather, rest, and anchor a living space. For collectors and designers, its enduring appeal lies in the blend of form and function, a testament to the way mid-century makers brought artful innovation to life.

The designer of this sofa pair evidently attached great and equal importance to form and function. With an open design profile, this two-seater model carries with it some of the fundamental characteristics and ideals of mid-century modernism.
Clutter-free and disciplined, they are as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing. The round shape is reminiscent of the Artifort style in that it has a sinuous and expressive quality that is harmonious and organic. There is also a certain quiet power to the design that is pared-down to the essential, exuding simplicity and timelessness. The open construction is made up of the generous seat cushion and the large back that flows towards the front to form the shell of the seat. This creates an inviting and open look which is a signature characteristic of mid-century modernism. Thanks to the sinuous, large surfaces, the velour fabric dominates the overall look, accentuating the round shapes and curves. The short, splayed legs prevent the sofas from looking heavy by slightly lifting them off the ground, while their warm brown colour nicely compliments the elegant colour of the body.
Without any ornamentation, the focus here is on the round, flowing lines of the body and the upholstery. From the muted colour scheme to the material choices, this streamlined design is essentially mid-century modern and therefore, can add that cosy charm into any space.
