About the Item

Display Shelf in the Manner of Axel Einar Hjorth, Sweden, 1930s. An elegant and minimalist Swedish display shelf, executed in solid pine and elm by a Swedish cabinetmaker during the 1930s, designed in the manner of Axel Einar Hjorth. The shelf combines simplicity and structural clarity with a quiet sophistication characteristic of Hjorth’s work from the period. The dialogue between pine and elm adds subtle depth to the design; over time, both woods have matured to an almost identical tone, resulting in a harmonious and unified surface with a warm, natural glow. The piece is presented in good vintage condition, with a beautifully developed patina throughout. It has recently received a careful application of oil, enhancing the grain and colour while preserving the integrity of the original materials. A refined and versatile storage or display piece, well suited for books, objects, or ceramics, and a strong example of Swedish functional craftsmanship from the interwar period. Dimensions: Height: 84 cm Width: 111 cm Depth: 31 cm
