The Dream of a Golden Age Mirjam Gelfer-Jørgensen 1st edition

This publication addresses an important period in Scandinavian design history when Danish furniture rose to a level that rivalled contemporaneous work in major European capitals and the Americas. In the estimation of many historians, this remarkable body of nineteenth-century work may be considered the foundation for modern Danish furniture in the twentieth century, based on its reliance upon superlative standards of fabrication, superb quality of design and revelation of national aspirations.
