As the name suggests, the firm's ethic was based on Scandinavian-inspired design with British craftmanship, this sofa having a resemblance to the sofa designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen Model Fd 144 in the early 1950s.

Made in solid beechwood with bent ply beech arms, giving it a marvellous sleek look. The sofa has been fully restored, the frame sympathetically re-finished by hand, with a very smooth waxed finish, still retaining light authentic marks to highlight its genuine heritage. The frame has been re-webbed and reupholstered with new foams. The fabric is from the Bute design studio, Scottish Isles. A vibrant contemporary take on their tweed fabric, with rich hues in textured flecks. 94% Pure New Wool & 6% Nylon.

A two to three seater sofa, the back cushions matching the curve in the frame. It would be a snug fit for three people.

The upholstery as a whole complies with fire regulations. There are downloadable certificates for the fabric if needed.

Please let me know if you wish to have a swatch.
