ProfessionalProduct description
This high-backed armchair with matching ottoman is from the renowned GE290 series, designed in 1953 by Hans J. Wegner for the Danish manufacturer Getama.
The armchairs showcase the characteristic clean lines of the Mid-Century era, combining functionality with Scandinavian craftsmanship.
The frame is crafted from solid oak, meticulously finished and pleasantly oiled. The armrests are wide and flat, providing a comfortable support and emphasizing the horizontal lines of the design.
The high backrests feature integrated headrests, whose cylindrical shape offers additional comfort.
The seat and back cushions are upholstered in a textured, reddish-burgundy fabric, whose subtle structure and color harmoniously complement the warm wood grain. The cushions are loose, making them easy to care for and typical of Getama products from this period. The ottomans echo the design of the armchairs, featuring a simple oak frame and matching upholstery, creating a cohesive and inviting look.
The original "GETAMA GEDSTED" stamp and the designer's mark, Hans J. Wegner, are found on the underside, confirming the pieces' authenticity.
Condition: The armchairs and ottomans are in very good, well-maintained vintage condition. The oak frames show only minimal signs of age and are stable. The upholstery is intact, the fabric is clean with slight signs of wear, but without any major damage or noticeable stains. Overall, a very well-preserved, original piece of furniture that perfectly embodies classic Danish mid-century aesthetics.
