Description
This solid, elegant pair of 1930s Danish lounge chairs represents the sophisticated influence of Art Deco on Danish cabinet-making during the early 20th century. Professionally restored and reupholstered in off-white natural sheepskin, these chairs embody both luxury and timeless craftsmanship, seamlessly merging the opulence of Art Deco with the enduring principles of Scandinavian design.
The chairs' restoration includes not only the reupholstery but also a historic reconstruction using traditional methods. The original copper springs and authentic padding have been carefully preserved and restored, ensuring that the chairs retain their original comfort and structural integrity while offering a modern experience of luxury. The natural sheepskin upholstery adds a soft, tactile contrast to the robust frame, providing a plush seating experience while maintaining the simplicity and natural beauty central to Danish design aesthetics.
The stained wooden armrests, featuring elegant Art Deco-inspired decoration, have undergone a delicate and authentic refinish. This careful restoration highlights the intricate wood detailing, while the rich stain enhances the wood’s natural grain, bringing out the depth and warmth of the material. The curved lines of the armrests, combined with the geometric Art Deco detailing, create a harmonious balance between form and function, showcasing the cabinet maker's mastery of both craft and artistic expression.
The tapered legs, characteristic of Art Deco design, are gracefully elongated, adding a sense of height and lightness to the chairs' overall form. Their streamlined shape evokes the elegance and modernity that defined the Art Deco movement, while their proportioned structure ensures both stability and visual balance. At the base of the legs, the chairs feature patinated brass shoes, a subtle but luxurious detail that reflects the high-quality craftsmanship and adds a touch of metallic sophistication to the design.
The patina on the brass shoes, along with the delicate refinishing of the wood, lends a historical authenticity to the pieces, emphasizing their vintage character while celebrating their careful restoration. The combination of natural materials—sheepskin, stained wood, brass, and copper springs—creates a richly textured, layered aesthetic that speaks to both the quality of the materials and the skill of the artisans who crafted and restored them.
These lounge chairs not only represent the high standards of Danish cabinet makers in the 1930s but also illustrate how the Art Deco movement influenced Danish design in subtle, refined ways. The restrained use of decoration, coupled with the sleek, functional form, reflects the Danish approach to Art Deco—one that embraces elegance and luxury without compromising simplicity and craftsmanship.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
