$3,950 · 1960s Danish Teak and Rattan FD451 Sofa Day Bed by Peter Hvidt

A rare and radiant example of Danish modernism, this original FD451 sofa by Peter Hvidt for France & Son fuses sculptural elegance with ingenious function. Crafted from richly grained solid teak and framed by pleated rattan panels, the form feels at once airy and grounded — a quiet masterwork of proportion and materiality. Freshly cleaned and polished to reveal the full warmth of the wood, the piece has been newly upholstered in a top-quality, beautifully textured fabric that enhances its refined silhouette. With signature fold-down arms that transform it effortlessly into a daybed, it’s a brilliant embodiment of Hvidt’s belief in design that adapts gracefully to life. In excellent vintage condition with a sturdy original frame, intact rattan, and its France & Son badge and serial number still present.
