OVERSIZED ITEM

Designed by Grete Jalk, the Model 118 three-seat sofa features a teak frame with softly tapered round legs, exposed cylindrical uprights, and the model’s distinctive curved rear support rail with sculpted vertical back slats. The broad upholstered arms are integrated into the frame, creating a clean transition between the seating and exposed teak structure.

The sofa retains its original architectural profile with a warm teak frame highlighted by well-defined grain throughout the front rail, rear stretcher, and side supports. The three loose seat cushions and three independent back cushions provide generous seating while preserving the sofa’s crisp, modular appearance. The light blue upholstery contrasts with the teak, emphasizing the clean geometry and exposed wood construction from every angle, particularly across the open back where the curved support system is fully visible.

The Model 118 demonstrates Grete Jalk’s approach to functional furniture design, with careful attention given to proportion, structural honesty, and visual balance. Its exposed joinery, sculpted frame, and comfortable proportions make it equally suited for residential interiors, executive offices, or collectors seeking documented examples of Danish modern furniture from one of Denmark’s most influential postwar designers.
