Made in Denmark by Tarm Stole Mobelfabrik. Designed by Erik Ole Jorgenson. Circa 1960s. 100% Burmese teakwood.
In approaching this piece’s restoration, color was the priority. I wanted to highlight the underlying orange tones of the teakwood which blend well with the mid-century modern aesthetic. I sanded off the previous finish, which was a combination of lacquer and danish oil. I then lightly stained the wood with Gunstock stain, allowing it to dry and cure for the next 72 hours. Then, we applied a sealer across the whole piece, allowing another 24 hours to pass for curing. Then I utilized a sprayed cherry toner to accentuate the color, which resulted in the richness seen below. After, I coated the chair with three coats of lacquer.
