Kurt Østervig
Kurt Ejvind Østervig was born in 1912 in Odense, Denmark. He was originally trained and worked as a shipbuilding engineer. However, by the 1930s Østervig shifted to furniture design because of his passion for woodworking.
Østervig's career as a furniture designer began at E. Knudsen’s architectural design studio in Odense. In 1947, Østervig opened his first own studio as a freelance furniture designer, with a focus on modern design. In the following decades, he worked with many of the leading Scandinavian furniture producers of the period.
Østervig was exceptionally versatile, designing furniture for hotels, cinemas, and won numerous design competitions during his career. He won awards at the Milan Triennale in 1953 and 1960. In the 1960s, one of Østervig’s designs was selected for an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
Østervig had a flair for the dramatic, infusing his furnishings with unique elements that stood out. From elegant, organic to coarse and purely functional furniture, his versatility earned him recognition.

A set of ten rosewood chairs Kurt Østervig Denmark, 1960s
Located in Stockholm, SE
A set of ten rosewood dining chairs designed by Kurt Østervig in Denmark during the 1960s. Crafted from richly grained rosewood, the chairs embody the harmony of sculptural form and functional elegance that characterises Scandinavian modern design. The gently curved, moulded backrests offer both comfort and visual rhythm, while the turquoise wool upholstery provides a refined contrast to the depth of the wood.

Combining architectural clarity with organic warmth, these Kurt Østervig chairs...
