buildings clothes dresses filters glasses mcm mid century modern retro video 26 may 2014 mid century danish modern why so popular photo by stiefelkombinat berlin true vintage nussbaum sideboard 60er danish modern 70er in complete honesty i m still learning about the danish modern movement that took an unexpected leap in the early fifties yes i know that danish modern did exist as early as the 30 s from what i can find but it really took the design world by storm in the 50 s seemingly the design professionals had taken note as early as the mid 40 s but with all the war stuff still having it s effect it wasn t until the late 40 s that people really could take it to heart as to just how different it really was as you probably know mid century danish modern furniture is one of the most popular styles of furniture for people to look for and try and get their hands on in the past 10 15 years it along with most other forms of mcm furniture have become highly valued once again why so photo by panda2008amanda danish modern solid teak dinner plate mid century signed wiggers 1960 s high quality materials one reason is materials used at that time are of very high quality as is the case of most vintage antique furniture even the knock offs copies of the original manufactures designs were made of better quality materials than most furniture today therefore even with the pieces being quite old now in terms of furniture age you can generally get a good and sturdy piece for a decent price and a little repair work teak is possibly one of the most famous materials that were used in mcmdanish modern furniture it s traditionalism of being danish not to mention its strength warmth and beautiful tone made it a perfect material for moderndanish furniture much of the materials used in american mid century modern furniture were also used in mcm danish modern design as well woods such as oak rosewood and walnut are also common to find even though many consider teak to be the more authentic or traditional material of retro danish modern design other materials were commonly used as well as is the case mid century modern furniture borrowed heavily from the design concepts of it s predecessor bauhaus even though much of what was designed and developed during the bauhaus movement was a bit weightier in form not all but most mid century danishmodern definitely borrowed from it in various ways one such way was the designer s use of metals acrylics leathers and plastics still almost every one of the materials used were of a better quality than those produced today for the mass market workmanship quality of craftsmanship another reason that many people like the mid century danish modern furniture is the quality of craftsmanship once again the originals are of the best quality but even the knock offs of the time are generally worth their price quality of work in the late 40 s early 60 s really meant something at that time therefore it can be fairly easy to find a decently sturdy piece of furniture that can be used upon purchase or with the minimal of investment and work reparation as mentioned above typically the workmanship and material quality of mid century modern danish furniture was of a high quality especially in comparison with that of today therefore reparations of danish modern furniture is considerably more feasible and allows one to not only use but maintain and even restore these pieces to an almost brand new appearance this allows for the owner to have a unique piece that lasts for a long period of time and typically is more affordable in the long run photo by lebensweyse tri o vintage mid century modern ceiling lamp danish plafonniere post art deco styling while all of what is mentioned above is true you may be thinking those are not the reasons that i want to buy or that i got into mid century danish modern furniture i know that too however i think that the aforementioned factors are equally as important to mention as the styling so people should can be educated facts are mcm danish modern furniture is cool it s sculpted it s airy and it s art that is truly functional due to its form and stance danishmodern furniture tends to exude a more futuristic styling in the space that it s placed but without it being harsh or creating a cold air in the ambient space there are few notable design aspects to a typically mid century modern danish piece and we will investigate these in more detail in the following post please note that all links in this post as well as the adds below the post are affiliate links that help

modern photo source ebay simply mod auctions have you every looked at a piece and thought i really like this but i m just not sure what or who s it is i m sure you have even though i ve been semi studying mcm design for many years now i still find that i lack a lot of knowledge when it comes to what piece belongs to what designer or who a designer is another lesser thought of question is what copy of said designers piece is the one that i m looking at is it an authentically approved piece from one of the original manufactures or is it a cheap knockoff from the vast number of cheaper quality companies that where riding on the skirt tails of the popular designers these questions do really deserve to be answered before you buy there are typically two reasons for wanting to know the designer originality of any specific piece one is i want to know if the asking price is reasonable for the product i m looking at unfortunately the hay days of picking up unappreciated mcm treasures are close to gone even more unlikely is that you will find any kind of stylized danish mid century furniture for a steal in fact you really need to watch out for your wallet many people today are sharks when it comes to stylized mid century modern furniture and will try to over charge you for a decent but not particularly special piece second is quality ok so as it goes for me personally i m not a big name dropper when it comes to furniture i m fairly shallow in the terms of furniture preferences this only applies to my personality with furniture though what i m looking for in furniture are good looks and a quality build clearly the price matters but only if the first two items are ticked off my list first so when i find a piece of furniture danish or not i want to know that my money is going toward something of value i need to know it s going to stand the test of time and stand up to some use really though the only way to know if the piece that you are looking at is worth the price is by knowing who the designer was but even more importantly who the manufacturer is let me give you an example my wife s aunt who is a big participant in an antiques mall in georgia called cobb antique mall recently found a set of dining chairs they re breuer cesca chairs and she wanted to know how to tell the originals from the knockoffs so i did a bit of research and found this link here thing being depending on which manufacture made the chairs you may be getting a well built quality seat or you may be getting a cheaply made knockoff that s not going to last very long or in fact you may find on closer inspection that the piece has already started to come apart being quality or not has a direct effect on whether or not these chairs are going to be a good investment and truly be valuable you can say the same about danish danish styled mid century furniture some are authentic and some are knockoffs so before you start whipping out that lettuce and throwing it at the sales person to make sure no one else gets that got to have piece pull out the smart phone a do a little research photo source ebay arts factory here s a couple of sites to help you with that research one is www danish modern co uk and the other is www danish lights com at www danish modern co uk you will find a listing of designers and manufactures years promoted sold and companies that sold these pieces at www danish lights com you will find the same thing as www danish modern co uk but for mid century modern danish lighting here the idea is that anyone can have a fairly quick reference guide to data on danish modern furniture and mid century modern danish lighting from the atomic era and still...
