Knowledge Database
Every day we receive emails with question about material used on vintage interior. Customer asking about sizes, in what year which material was used and when it changed to an other. They are asking because they want to do correct restoration, or to identify the year or the manufacturer or their beloved furniture.
Because we have some experience and also collect some information we can help with some information, but unfortunately we do not know all we want to know.
We gladly share the information with our customer, so on this page we started a database to share knowledge about vintage design interior.
We will add information whenever we will find the time to add something. If you know something you like to share, please send us a mail and will add it. If you like with your name or unnamed.
1872
The history of Fritz Hansen begins in 1872, where the enterprising cabinet maker Fritz Hansen obtains a trade license in Copenhagen. 1885 is a decisive year for the Nakskov native and he opens a furniture production company in his own name. Just two years later, his workshop in Christianshavn is thriving. From here, Fritz and his son Christian create high-quality furniture that will continue to define Fritz Hansen in the future.
The first fifty years of the company are defined by a long list of prestigious contracts that include producing furniture for the Danish Parliament and Supreme Court at Christiansburg Palace, the University Library, Copenhagen City Hall and other significant institutions.
