Arne Hovmand-Olsen: Celebrating Danish Craftsmanship


Arne Hovmand-Olsen (1919–1989), a visionary Danish designer trained under Peder Olsen Sibast, crafted timeless pieces for makers like J.L. Møller and Mogens Kold, blending minimalist elegance with high-quality teak and Danish cord. His designs, often compared to Niels O. Møller’s Model 71, embody Scandinavian modernism’s collaborative spirit. Restoring these preserves their historical value while creating showpieces that reflect personal pride in your home, using FSC-certified materials to cut carbon by 80% and extend life by 30–60 years.


Review by Melissa Higgs praising Laurie and Dave's craftsmanship in replacing woven seats on mid-century Danish chairs shown in two photos.

Why his legacy endures:


•  Innovative Designs: Organic curves and functional beauty for everyday heirlooms.


•  Timeless Appeal: Sparks conversations as focal points in Canadian homes.


•  Sustainable Influence: Aligns with eco-restorations that save 50% over new replicas.
