Each piece, twice restored: once by us, once by time.
We spend an unusual amount of time on every piece that passes through our workshop. A Mogensen lounge chair that arrives from auction in Copenhagen will spend, on average, eight weeks with us before it's listed for sale. Most of that time it's sitting still — leather oils penetrating, joinery glue setting, finishes curing the way they would have in 1958.
We won't list anything we wouldn't put in our own house. We've turned down a lot of furniture over the years, and we'll keep doing it. A "vintage" tag is meaningless without the work that has to come after it.
