Title: Set of Two (2) Danish Modern Model 113 Armchairs in Oak & Original Cane by Nanna Ditzel for Kolds Savvaerk, Denmark, c. 1950'sAbout: These “Model 113” chairs, with their elegant and ergonomic shape, are instantly recognizable as being Danish Mid-Century Modern. As with most of Ditzel’s designs, like her iconic “Egg Chair” (1959), the ”Model 113” chair is based on a circlular shape, as shown with the deep curvature of the backrest. This graceful curve is contrasted with the square, tapered shape of the legs and the natural oak softens this juxtaposition; resulting in a balanced and clean-lined frame. The delicately hand-woven, multi-colored cane seats perfectly offset the deep richness of the solid oak frame. The slight bow of the seat flows with the curves of the frame, making the piece both cohesive and comfortable. These chairs, with their use of premium materials and subtle elegance, showcases the very best qualities of Danish Mid-Century Modern design.Nanna Ditzel (1923
