QR Code Link to This Post
It is in magazine quality condition still with the original cushions
5 ultrafine layers of one of the best Danish teak oils for true authenticity matching the chairs that cost over $10 ,000 for single pieces
NONE of the pieces look like they do in the photos now
The two side tables were PROPERLY completely stripped and museum grade sanded and are in fantastic condition. Prepped for several coats of new finish. NOT a coating over old junk
The work is done on the lounge chair, almost complete on the tables, so we do not have new photos yet.
Unlike most Danish furniture that has been damaged and dented and chipped and refinished, these three pieces were selected because they had almost no marks and had never been refinished improperly
SOFA WAS SOLD
Pictures NO LONGER REFLECT the upgraded current condition
Selling the Grete Jalk teak lounge chair and two Grete Jalk teak side tables
All marked pieces, France and Sons, John Stuart New York and Grand Rapids Michigan, and Glostrup Mobelfabrik
Flexible on the price for the set of THREE pieces (lounge chair, two end tables)
Pictures are not terrible---STUNNING and much better and more substantial in person
ALL three are now in the final stages of a fantastic restoration so that they will be some of the BEST versions of these around
Grete Jalk is one of the more known designers that influenced all of Danish Modern furniture
And one of the top women designers for Danish Modern
Price is $5,500 "as is" with the finished chair and almost finished side tables
Grete Jalk for France and Sons. Imported by John Stuart
Teak lounge chair - Model 128 or 118
Completely stripped down to gorgeous raw teak. NO finishes and no damage
TWO Grete Jalk teak side tables for Glostrup Mobelfabrik
Completely stripped down to gorgeous raw teak. NO finishes and no damage
We are selling all THREE pieces as a set for $5,500 OBO
Original leather cushions which have had higher end leather conditioner applied with three coats
Cushions are original leather with a new, professional grade scrim backed padding wrap INSIDE the leather
Original UNRESTORED teak. No extra, poorly applied finishes. Professionally stripped to factory fresh condition
Teak is in VERY good condition and even better than expected for a teak lounge chair made in 1960-1967 since the chair was in one family since around the late 950s-1960s
France and Sons started as France and Daverkosen.
From around 1960-1967 they were known as France and Sons which is the logo or makers mark emblem attached in the frame. They eventually where bought by CADO which made lesser quality versions of the furniture lines.
John Stuart was NOT the maker. He was an importer based in New York and Grand Rapids Michigan.
He only imported very good examples of known designer Danish furniture
These are all the original versions, not later copies

*****
We think the original unrestored condition is rare to find in this condition versus most that have been poorly recoated many times.
