Kaare Klint made this unique three seater sofa in 1916. It is a prime example of the earliest days of a movement that would evolve into a golden age of Danish design. Characterised by clean, pure lines and the use of the best materials of the time – burl oak and niger leather – it is among his very early designs. This sofa has all the attributes that define the work of the Danish architect and furniture designer. Copenhagen born (in 1888) Kaare Klint is widely regarded as the inspirational father of modern Danish design.
