Description

Hans Wegner GE 236 Sofa – Mid-Century Danish Modern Icon in Rare 1960s Yellow Upholstery (71.5W x 32D x 27H x 15.5SH)

Discover a rare and authentic example of mid-century Danish design with this Hans Wegner GE 236 Sofa, originally designed in the 1960s and reupholstered in the 1960s in a striking vintage yellow wool fabric. Designed by legendary Danish furniture designer Hans J. Wegner for Getama, this 3-seat sofa is a timeless piece that exemplifies the clean lines, ergonomic comfort, and quality craftsmanship that made Scandinavian modernism world-renowned.

Features:

  • Designer: Hans J. Wegner

  • Model: GE 236 / GE 236/3

  • Manufacturer: Getama, Denmark

  • Design Period: Original 1960s Design

  • Reupholstered: 1960s, in vintage yellow wool

  • Style: Danish Modern / Mid-Century Modern

  • Dimensions:
    – Width: 71.5 in (181.6 cm)
    – Depth: 32 in (81.3 cm)
    – Height: 27 in (68.6 cm)
    – Seat Height: 15.5 in (39.4 cm)

Description:

The GE 236/3 sofa features a solid oak frame, expertly joined and beautifully aged, supporting a sleek, low-profile form with three generous seat cushions and matching back cushions. The original spring suspension and dense foam ensure long-lasting support and comfort. Its minimalist structure showcases Wegner’s philosophy of form following function, while the vibrant mustard-yellow upholstery from the 1960s adds a bold yet tasteful retro touch.

Perfect for mid-century collectors, Danish design enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a functional art piece for their home or studio. This sofa blends seamlessly into both modern interiors and vintage-inspired spaces.

Condition:

Excellent vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age. The upholstery remains vibrant with no major stains or tears. The frame is structurally sound with a beautiful aged patina.

Why This Piece Stands Out:

  • Genuine Hans Wegner design with documented provenance

  • Uncommon 1960s yellow upholstery adds uniqueness and collector value

  • Iconic silhouette ideal for photography, staging, or gallery-style living rooms

  • Increasingly rare on the international vintage market
