BEST OF DANISH DESIGN - KAI KRISTIANSEN
















Kai Kristiansen
Kristiansens designs are true examples of Danish mid twentieth century furniture. He designed everything from writing desks, tables, sideboards, chair, bar cabinets, TV- stands, mostly using teak or rosewood. His 1960s sofa set consists of two corner chairs, one center chair with stool, which can be used in different configurations. The frames of the chairs are beautifully curved rosewood. The majority where made with the firm Feldballes Møbelfabrik was established in Århus, Denmark and was active in the 1950s. One of the highlights of its production was based on the cooperation with furniture designer Kai Kristiansen - the so-called FM system, or "FM-reolen". This elegant and highly flexible shelving system was made of oak or rosewood. He is one to watch and collect. Simply beautiful dateless design.
