1B2G is pleased to feature the Nanna Ditzel desk alongside Borge Mogensen’s Spanish Dining chair

An icon of Danish Modern design, this writing desk by Nanna Ditzel, crafted by master cabinetmaker Søren Willadsen, embodies the designer’s distinctive balance of sculptural form, organic detail and everyday functionality. Executed in warm oak, the desk has developed a rich patina over time, with the natural grain flowing across the generous tabletop and three spacious drawers. Ditzel’s signature recessed drawer pulls, softly rounded corners and refined proportions lend the piece an understated sophistication, while the sculptural Y-profile solid wood trestle legs give it a striking architectural presence.
Equally beautiful from every angle, the fully finished back allows the desk to stand freely within a room — a considered detail that makes it as compelling in a contemporary interior as it was when first conceived.

The Spanish dining armchair is designed by Børge Mogensen and produced by Fredericia Stolefabrik. It embodies the designer’s philosophy: simplicity, functionality and respect for natural materials. It is in solid oak and fitted with saddle leather seats and backs. The chair possesses a striking balance of robust construction and refined proportions. The oak frame contrasts with the leather, while the exposed buckles and adjustable straps introduce a distinctive architectural quality to the design. The natural saddle leather has developed a rich patina, lending the chair its own character and a sense of history that cannot be replicated. True to Mogensen’s thoughtful approach, the adjustable straps can be tightened over time as the leather naturally relaxes, ensuring the chair remain as functional as well as beautiful.

A beautifully considered pairing of Danish design. The Børge Mogensen lounge chairs and matching ottoman for Fritz Hansen, circa 1966, with an unusually beautiful rosewood coffee table by Lysgaard Møbler. 
The table has a richly figured rosewood top which is inset with a ceramic tile carrying an abstract motif in burnt umber, charcoal black and beige. This combination of the warm rosewood and hand-finished ceramic creates a striking composition—decorative without compromising the restraint of Danish modernism.
The Mogensen chairs and ottoman retain their original Fritz Hansen labels and come from the private estate collection of Lennart and Barbro Nork.
Lennart Nork, founder of Talavid Inredningar AB in Sweden, worked closely with Børge Mogensen for many years. Their professional relationship developed into a close friendship, and Mogensen was personally involved in the planning of the Nork family’s 1960s home in Bankeryd, where architect Arne Karlsen designed an extension specifically around Mogensen’s furniture and interiors. This provenance that makes the ensemble compelling - not simply examples of Danish mid-century design but pieces connected to the people, interiors and relationships that shaped Danish modernism.

1B2G is pleased to feature, the JH-719 chair by Hans Wegner and sideboard by Finn Juhl.
The Hans Wegner JH-719 Easy Chair, produced by master cabinetmaker Johannes Hansen, retains its original red-lacquered beech frame. It has a flag halyard seat and back with brass cylinders and loose cream upholstered cushions. The red-lacquered JH-719 is an exceptionally scarce variant, associated with the chair’s presentation at the 1968 Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition. Its sculptural frame and woven construction demonstrate Wegner at his most experimental.
Alongside it, is a sideboard designed by Finn Juhl in 1952 and manufactured by Søren Willadsen. Constructed with an oak frame and teak front, the sideboard is an extraordinary combination of form and function. The upper section has two teak sliding doors opening to maple shelves and pull-out trays; the centre section provides two further pull-out trays, while the lower section contains four drawers and two teak doors concealing additional maple shelving. The Søren Willadsen connection makes this piece compelling. Of all the manufacturers associated with Finn Juhl, Søren Willadsen’s production is among the smallest in scale and consequently among the least frequently encountered today. These pieces have a distinctly cabinetmaker-made character that serious collectors increasingly appreciate.

The PK 11 by Poul Kjærholm is a singular example of Danish modernism, reducing a chair to its essential elements without sacrificing comfort or character.
This 1970s example was produced by E. Kold Christensen, the original manufacturer of Kjærholm’s furniture. Its three steel legs are precisely joined with machine screws, supporting a seat in patinated natural leather, while the sculptural back is crafted from high-quality hand-finished ash.
The original E. Kold Christensen maker’s mark remains stamped on the frame.
A matching set of 6 is available. Six original PK 11s together create a stronger presence than a single chair — around a dining table, boardroom table or as a statement grouping, they have the unmistakable look of a Danish design collection.

A rare matching pair of Børge Mogensen lounge chairs with their original matching ottoman designed for Fritz Hansen. Crafted in beautifully aged beech and upholstered in wool, the set retains its original upholstery and the Fritz Hansen labels and dates to 1966.
These chairs come from the private estate of Lennart and Barbro Nork. Lennart Nork, founder and owner of Talavid Inredningar AB in Sweden, worked closely alongside Børge Mogensen for many years with their professional relationship evolving into a lasting friendship.
When the Nork family expanded their home in Bankeryd, the extension was conceived specifically around Børge Mogensen’s vision for furniture and interiors. Designed by architect Arne Karlsen with Mogensen’s direct involvement, the home became a rare example of architecture and furniture created in complete harmony. Acquiring this set is in effect preserving a tangible chapter of Børge Mogensen’s personal and professional legacy and the story of the Nork family and Mogensen’s friendship gives it a level of significance that is rarely found in surviving examples.

A commanding tall sideboard in oak designed in the manner of Henning Kjaernulf. The façade is defined by striking cabinet doors, each adorned with carved geometric panels that are enhanced by the warm natural patina of the oak. The high quality craftsmanship carries through to the interior of the sideboard with generous and well thought out storage compartments and felt lined pull-out trays. The scalloped apron below lends an unexpected softness to the piece and make it even more visually compelling.

Hans Wegner’s GE 500 Easy Chair is an exceptionally rare piece. Produced for only a brief period in the early 1970s, it is estimated that fewer than 100 units of the GE 500 series, including both sofas and armchairs, were ever made. This rarity makes it highly coveted among collectors.

The chair features a solid oak frame with distinctive wedge-shaped legs, complemented by cone-shaped chromed shoes and wheels, which add a subtle industrial edge to its elegant silhouette. Its ergonomic design ensures comfort, while its clean, minimalist lines reflect Wegner’s signature approach to modern design. This particular piece is upholstered in all original stunning purple fabric.

A high sideboard, crafted in Denmark in the 1940-50’s. It is in stained oak. Its façade is defined by two sliding doors adorned with a charming hand-carved scene of fishermen and sailboats, capturing Denmark’s deep connection to the sea. Below are two generously sized cutlery drawers, while the lower cabinets reveal adjustable shelving, offering practical storage without compromising its elegant proportions. Original solid brass handles provide a warm contrast to the rich oak and have developed the beautiful patina that only decades can create.

1B2G is pleased to feature the “Mama Bear” chair by Hans Wegner and an antique Louis Vuitton steamer trunk.

The Hans Wegner “AP 28” Mama Bear chair was designed in 1954 and produced by AP Stolen. It is one of the most sought after pieces of Danish Modern one can own. The Mama Bear offers not just aesthetic appeal but also a part of design heritage, enduring value and comfort.
It is a treasure by “Master of the Chair” Hans Wegner whose work needs no introduction and is held in important design institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art and the Design Museum, Denmark. A vintage example like this one is made by AP Stolen who is well known for their high level of craftsmanship. The chair’s construction includes horsehair- a natural material that is more durable and comfortable than the foam used in contemporary pieces.

The Louis Vuitton steamer trunk is from the 1890’s and has the Damier Ebene pattern. This trunk retains the original label with the serial no 102429. It also has its original lining and tray compartments. The inner side of the lid has the original upholstery in ivory fabric, with diamond tufted accents in red silk that presumably held mail and postcards. The trunk has a canvas clad wood case with metal edging. It is reinforced with wooden slats and brass rivets. It has steel handles on either end. The key latch reads :” Louis Vuitton, London”.  The side of the trunk has the initials “RW”. This trunk bears the “scars “ of its travels and this only adds to its appeal.
