These elegant nesting tables by Erling Torvits for Heltborg Møbler pair warm beech frames with richly toned rosewood tops. Softly rounded edges and sculptural supports giving the set a refined, light presence. The woven cane shelf to the smallest table is a thoughtful detail, adding both texture and function.

A fine example of Danish mid century cabinetmaking, the design speaks to the period’s gift for combining beauty with practicality. Compact and versatile, the three tables tuck neatly together when not in use, then separate to offer a graceful set of surfaces as required.

A definitively Danish sideboard in rosewood, the Model 66 is a seriously stunning piece of design and luxury.

With numerous international design awards under his belt and a reputation as one of the most cutting edge designers, designer Ib Kofod Larsen's work for Danish maker Faarup in the 1960s is highly coveted.

The 'Model 66' is a confident expression of Kofod-Larsen's design aesthetic. Spacious cabinets offer flexible storage options with beautifully crafted drawers and four drawers at the top for smaller items. This unreservedly minimalist offering of grand proportions and crisp linear detailing is the perfect canvas for the stunning grain of the rosewood timber. This particular sideboard has a wonderful grain pattern on display and is absolutely stunning in person.

Franz Iseke is one of mid-century New Zealand's most celebrated architects. This large scale home from 1960 offers a private entrance set down from the road and a fully opened expanse of glass and deck to face the view of Orakei Basin. While it's been updated over time, it's clear that Iseke achieved something special for this time period with this International modern style design. 14 Darwin Lane, Remuera is currently for sale.

A rare and collectable pair of lounge chairs designed by Eugene Schmidt for Soloform, Germany. The beautifully sculpted Beech wood frames carry wonderfully organic, flowing lines that feel both refined and relaxed, with an open construction that gives them a light, airy quality.

Freshly reupholstered in a textured wool blend, the generous loose cushions offer serious comfort without compromising the elegant silhouette. A versatile and sophisticated pair that would sit beautifully in both classic and contemporary interiors.

Back in Stock / One of our UK modernist favourites, this piece has been all over restored, revealing vibrant timber grain patterns. Designed by Tom Robertson for A.H. McIntosh, the Dunfermline sideboard is a beautifully resolved piece of Scottish mid century design. Long and low in profile, it pairs rich teak grain with sculpted circular pulls, elegant drawer detailing and softly tapered legs for a look that feels refined and quietly modern.

We're thrilled to dance outside the beige and black lines with this fun geometric concept given weight by a beautiful and luxurious vintage rug by Richard Killeen for Dilana. It offers colour and character to a space – creating this group seen at the gallery was a delightful experience, pulling together other new and vintage objects, lighting and some fresh artwork from a recent show from Föeander.

We'd love to help you if you are considering some colour or bold forms for your space. Visit the gallery in the weekend for a coffee and a chat. Here we've put together a group of pieces which would work with a bold rug like this, with graphic elements and clean lines. We hope you enjoy this selection and a break from the nice and neutral.

This sofa and the Z Sofa counterpart, also made for Selig, is up there with our all time favourites. We've paired it with a gorgeous textured wool blend textile – quite the sensational match to tie in with a contemporary space.

An elegant Danish statement by Ib Kofod-Larsen for American brand Selig, the ‘Knife Blade’ sofa celebrates sculptural minimalism. A visually striking backrest composed of numerous knife-blade slats flows into beautifully contoured armrests, delivering lightness without compromising comfort. The refined profile presents beautifully from every angle, making it ideal for open plan living and sophisticated lounges.

A beautifully handcrafted piece from celebrated New Zealand studio furniture maker Emile Drescher, the 'Moon' dining table is instantly recognisable for its refined simplicity and exceptional craftsmanship.

Constructed from warm Cherry Wood, the circular top features a delicate ridge detail around its perimeter, while the elegantly curved, splayed legs lend the piece a lightness and organic quality. Drescher's work is held in private collections throughout New Zealand and is widely regarded as some of the finest studio furniture produced in the country.
