Set of 4 teak Model 89 chairs, designed by Erik Buch, Anderstrup Møbelfabrik, Denmark, 1950s

A set of four elegant chairs designed by Erik Buch for the Danish manufacturer Anderstrup Møbelfabrik in the 1950s. They are made of high-quality teak in a dark brown shade. The contoured, comfortable seat and backrest are upholstered in thick beige wool fabric. The chairs were crafted with the utmost attention to detail. The set is a perfect reflection of the Danish Mid-Century Modern era and will complement a wide range of interiors.

Erik Buch was an industrial designer born in Copenhagen. His furniture is characterised by an organic and functional aesthetic. His first success was the Model 49 chair from 1949. It features a curved, floating seat and a classic Scandinavian aesthetic. His most famous design is probably the Model 61 bar stool from 1961, which has a typically Scandinavian base with organically sculpted lines. Many of Buch’s designs are named after the year in which they were created. Other designs by Buch include the Captain’s Chair (1955) for Ørum Møbler, the Model 310 dining chair for Chr. Christiansen, and a T-shaped bar stool for Dyrlund.

The chairs are in original vintage condition. They have minor signs of use consistent with their age. The seat height is 45 cm.
