Many of Denmark's best designers have completed 12 years of training, including formal education and apprenticeship before they ever begin to design pieces. This stringent education has molded true furniture legends such as Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Poul Kjaerholm, Nanna Ditzel, Finn Juhl, Kasper Salto, Christina Strand, Hans Sandgren Jacobsen and Cecilie Manz. The pride and dedication to producing a superior furniture piece continues with each Danish manufacturer who assures a rigorous quality control process and uses only the best materials such as oak and the highest grained leather. No short-cuts are included in Danish furniture and accessories because each piece is crafted to last a lifetime.
Danish-designed pieces appeal to the artistic and those who appreciate form as well as function. Many are hand-crafted and all are produced by the original Danish manufacturers and brought to the US. Craftsmanship, quality, longevity and timelessness are all hallmarks of authentic Danish design. The same pieces on display in dkVOGUE’s showrooms, the largest display in the US, are also featured in the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and in many other prominent museums, facilities, homes and offices throughout the world.
Authentic Danish furniture has excellent resale value and of course resale value is a very good indicator of quality and desirability. Vintage Danish pieces often sell for many times their original selling price and even relatively new pieces are able to command excellent prices in the used marketplace further demonstrating another benefit of owning such furniture. |
