Product Description
A rare Axel Einar Hjorth 'Sandhamn' stained pine cabinet, designed in 1929. Manufactured for Nordiska Kompaniet in 1932. Stained pine and wrought. With NK label and serial number.
Provenance: sports cabin on Stora Elgön in the Stockholm archipelago. The house was built in the 1930s and decorated with furniture designed by Axel Einar Hjorth.
The 'Sandhamn' series was the first of the 'Sportstuge' furniture that Hjorth designed for NK, named after various islands in the Stockholm archipelago. Meticulously manufactured by the Nordiska Kompaniet's carpentry workshop in Nyköping, their early entry into Hjorth's 'Sports Cabin' ouvre means that 'Sandhamn' pieces are generally very exclusive and rare, with high levels of craftsmanship and detailing, in comparison to other later models in the stained pine series.
