Could it be that this space is beginning to flourish again? I hope so, I’ve really missed it! I was wondering if anyone would be interested in starting a thread of items found recently? I used to love seeing what others found and it broadened my knowledge base as well!

One of the more amusing threads of yore, IMO, was "What was the last thing you saw that made you say WTF?"

Been awhile but glad to be back! 

CFC Silkeborg Rosewood Cart - Johannes Andersen is what the internet says but haven't seen an ad for it myself.

Had this teak recliner reupholstered in Kvadrat Tonica. Still no ID on it but i'd guess Norway, the recline mechanism is NORSK.  

** The Nelson light was just temporary so the cord was not dealt with in a permanent kinda way  😉 **

Last one....is there a way to put multiple photos on the same message? I didn't try very hard to figure it out so I apologize for the multiple posts!

Ponyboy,

The serving trolley/cart you posted is by Henning Korch for C.F.Christensen.

Often attributed,wrongly, to Johannes Andersen: This had been discussed on the old Forum a good while back and one of our "illustrious" members had proof that it was designed by Henning Korch, the designmuseum.dk were informed and they corrected their Furniture index records accordingly.

Regards,

Lexi.

Thanks for the info on the cart, Lexi! I was definitely not convinced it was Andersen after looking in the index under his name and not finding it there. It’s a beauty and I’m happy to have a proper ID!

I think I have identified your chair; not 100% sure as you have only posted one pic.

Ib Kofod-Larsen Reclining Charis Model Pd-21 by Povl Dinesen, Denmark 1950s.

Did further searching as none of the images of the chair online showed makers stamps/labels. found one listing for a Povl Dinesen catalogue which shows the above chair. ( link below) Unfortunately if you try to zoom in on the image the description becomes illegible !!

@lexi Povl Dinesen was at the time of that catalog primarily a retailer. There are a few PD made designs in there but not many. And none in that page.

@leif-ericson

Thank you for clarifying. 

So that begs the question; is the chair in the top left corner,left hand page, which I thought was the same as Ponyboy's chair, even by Ib Kofod Larsen?     (As I mentioned the text on the catalogue page is unreadable)

You appear to be familiar with this catalogue ; if so, perhaps you could help with deciphering the text/information that accompanies the image.

Or maybe you have other documentation which would help to correctly ID said chair.

It would be good to clear up any misinformation .

Thanks in advance,

Lexi.

@lexi @wesemael  I have definitely seen Ib Kofod Larsen attributions on the internet.  I am not sure I believe them, but I don't have any evidence as to the designer.  In my two Povl Dinesen catalogs from the early / mid 1960s both designs are uncredited.  In my Aasbjerg / Excellent Furniture Co catalog the designs are also uncredited (which is normal for this catalog), but the maker's initials are given: MS and the model numbers are given too: MS-20 is the one with wood armrests, MS-30 is the other.  And MS-xxF is the footstool.  I have never figured out for sure who MS is.
