- Why is Danish furniture so good?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Vintage Danish furniture is so good because its design was founded on centuries-old beliefs in both quality craftsmanship and the ideal that beauty should enhance even the humblest accessories of daily life. Mid-century Danish furniture took off in the United States after the Second World War, when Scandinavia’s simple, curvilinear wooden furniture, home goods and textiles suddenly seemed the perfect foil for glass-and-steel skyscrapers. The Danes excelled at chairs. Hans Wegner and Arne Jacobsen were exemplars of the country’s facility with wood, particularly teak. Wegner created such iconic pieces as the Round chair and the Wishbone chair. Find vintage and antique Danish furniture on 1stDibs.
- What is Danish modern furniture?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024Danish modern furniture is the term for a style of furniture that emerged during the 1930s through the innovation of designers from Denmark. It is a subset of Scandinavian modern furniture, the warmest and most organic iteration of modernist design. The work of the designers associated with vintage Scandinavian modern furniture was founded on centuries-old beliefs in both quality craftsmanship and the ideal that beauty should enhance even the humblest accessories of daily life. Some notable Danish modern designers include Hans J. Wegner, Kaare Klint, Arne Jacobsen, Finn Juhl, Arne Vodder and Verner Panton. Shop a range of Danish modern furniture on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
Danish and Swedish design share many tenets, including an emphasis on simplicity and functionality. Danish furniture generally expresses these ideas through new industrial technologies, while Swedish products are minimalist and stress clean lines.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 26, 2024To identify Danish teak furniture, look for stamps, labels and tags that bear a maker's mark. You can consult trusted online resources to determine who produced your piece and whether it is a Danish maker. From there, research the company, workshop or artisan to find out if it produced pieces out of teak wood and search online catalogues to see if you can find your item and learn more about its materials. Knowing the characteristics of teak wood can also be helpful. It often has a smooth, straight grain and tends to be dense. Colors vary, but fine-quality pieces often have a golden-brown hue. When in doubt about your furniture, have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer assist you. Shop a selection of Danish teak furniture on 1stDibs.
