About the Item
This three-seater leather sofa was designed by Georg Thams for the Danish manufacturer A/S Vejen Polstermøbelfabrik during the 1960s. The sofa is the essence of Danish modernism, striving for simplicity, functionality, and harmony of form and material. The sofa's shape is slender and proportionate. The teak frame in a warm shade of brown was designed with meticulous attention to line and ergonomics. The gently curved back and armrests seamlessly connect with the legs, creating a cohesive, sculptural whole. The soft transitions between the wood elements, characteristic of Danish design, add a visual lightness to the structure. The seat and backrest are formed by six separate cushions upholstered in milk chocolate-colored leather with evenly quilted center sections. The natural texture of the leather beautifully complements the warm shade of the teak, creating a classic yet understated combination. The entire piece is maintained in the spirit of organic modernism, where the furniture is not only practical but also visually light and user-friendly. The sofa exudes calm and balance, perfectly reflecting the philosophy of Scandinavian design, in which an object should contribute to the harmony of the interior, not dominate it.
Georg Thams is a leading Danish furniture maker. He specialized in angular designs mainly of sofas and armchairs. All his designs are characterized by sharp edges and clear shapes. They were produced by many Danish producers, e.g. Vejen Møbelfabrik and attract interest at many auctions to this day.
The sofa is in original vintage condition. It shows signs of wear, scratches and abrasions on the leather, natural patina. The center button on one seat cushion is missing. The seat height is 38 cm.

Mid-Century Modern 2-Seater Brown Leather Sofa3330 by A. Vodder for Fritz Hansen
By Arne Vodder, Fritz Hansen
Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
This two-seater sofa model 3330 was designed by Arne Vodder for the Danish manufacturer Fritz Hansen during the 1960s. A museum piece, rarely available for sale, especially in the two-seater version. This sofa is upholstered in high-quality amber brown natural leather. Spacious and comfortable pillows are loosely placed. The wide armrests resemble the shape of a wing. The legs are made of black lacquered steel. Perfect proportions, Scandinavian craftsmanship with a clearly marked line of furniture due this project timelessness. The traditions and philosophical assumptions of Danish craftsmanship have been translated into a modern furniture idiom.
Vodder was born in Denmark in 1926. Trained as a carpenter and architect, he studied with Finn Juhl at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. After school, he worked as a designer in Hindsgaul, focusing primarily on office decor. In 1950, Vodder founded his own architectural and design studio with architect Anton Borg. Over the years, the studio moved to several locations in Copenhagen before finally settling in the suburb of Holte, north of the city. Vodder and Borg worked together until the 1970s.
Vodder is best known for its furniture designs that were usually simple pieces consisting of natural materials such as rosewood and teak. His designs were often inspired by natural forms. Vodder collaborated with respected brands, designing furniture for manufacturers such as Fritz Hansen, France & Søn, Nielaus, Sibast, Kircodan. In the 1950s and 1970s, Vodder furniture designs were used by President Jimmy Carter at the White House and President Anwar Sadat in Cairo, and were incorporated into the United Nations Office in Geneva and graced many hotels, banks, and embassies around the world. His works have been widely presented both individually and in collective exhibitions with artists such as Verner Panton and Nanna Ditzel.
Fritz Hansen, also known as the Republic of Fritz Hansen, is a Danish furniture design company whose history begins in 1872 in Nakskov. From the very beginning, Fritz Hansen and his son Christian placed emphasis on the high quality of their furniture, which is their hallmark until the present day. The long list of orders in the first fifty years of the company's operation confirms this. At the beginning of the 20th century, Christian Hansen began experimenting with the steam-bending of beech wood, and in 1915 he created the first laminated chairs, which became the company's specialty. Arne Jacobsen completely dominated the 1950s in the company. He started working together in 1934, but his breakthrough came when he created the Ant laminated chair in 1952. The next projects: Series 7 (1955), Swan (1958) and Egg (1958), which were designed for the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, became milestones in the history of Fritz Hansen and are still produced today.
This sofa is in original vintage condition. It has a natural patina and traces of age, leather scrapes, pigment changes, traces of repair on the seat. The seat is 39 cm high.
