Hi everyone,

Ib Kofod or Svend Aage Larsen for Faarup for this highboard?

@Scandi-Style

Why Ib Kofod-Larsen, why Sven Aage Larsen, and why Faarup?

Well.... I've previously seen the same model with the Faarup manufacturer label.

And some are currently being sold as designed by Ib Kofod Larsen, but I had previously had a low sideboard very similar, especially the handles, by Svend Aage Larsen. So it makes me doubt the IK connection.

Hence my interest and request for confirmation ... 

Appreciate your interest!

@Scandi-Style

If you have seen the model with the Faarup tag, then it will probably be a Faarup model, unless a retailer has misused the tag to make the furniture more attractive, which happens very often.
As far as I know, the attribution to Ib Kofod-Karsen or Sven Aage Larsen is nowhere seriously documented.

So if its not Faarup, any ideas on what it might be?

Where did you see it with the Faarup tag?

Was it exactly the same model? Or just similar?

Thanks, @wesemael , even stamped and not a tag, that clarifies at least one question.

welcome @mvc if you check the here often quoted furniture index you will find not the highboard but 4 faarup  designed by both kofod larsen en sven aage larsen seems a good source "seriously documented"to paraphrase you

@wesemael

Well, but that question didn't arise whether the two "Larsens" worked for Faarup or not.

And as we know, the DFI is not always "seriously documenting".

@mvc agree. you are right i thought you meant the two never worked for faarstup

 Until now  i considered DFI seriously documented,  Scandinavian is not my core business

@wesemael

The credibility of the documentation depends on the cited source which is listed, and that source is sometimes ridiculous.

En wat is uw core business? En waar, in Nederland of België?

so far i thought DFI to be a good source i prefer original catalogues etc or research archives myself

Rotterdam nederland en voornamelijk nederlands design af en toe bekend internationaal design als niemand aan het opletten is google mijn naam en catawiki of marktplaats en je krijgt een "niet goed gedocumenteerde" indruk echt mooie stukken verkoop ik aan internationale handelaren

of hou ik zelf rudolf wolf voor Rohé
