Teak Lounge Chair by Sven Ellekaer for Komfort, Denmark, 1960s

Danish architect-designer Arne Wahl Iversen can be counted among a significant number of Mid-Century Modern Scandinavian designers whose works, despite a scarcity of biographical information, are experiencing a surge in popularity in the 21st century. From sources such as catalogs, advertisements, and labeled furniture, we can deduce that Wahl Iversen was a prolific designer active throughout the 1950s and 1960s. His designs were produced by a wide variety of small and large Danish manufacturers, including Komfort, Vinde Møbelfabrik, Jørgensen Nissen, Brenderup Møbelfabrik, Hans Hansen, Kolds Savvaerk and Falster Møbelfabriken. His portfolio expanded from seating options to encompass a wide range of furniture, such as secretaries, dining tables, liquor cabinets, desks and dressing tables, with materials and aesthetics in line with the Danish modern style.
