Muut tiedot
Hans J. Wegner's own closet with provenance from his home in Aarhus. In 1945, Wegner carried out two unique closets for his apartment, one for himself and one for his wife Inga.
A few years later, after moving to Copenhagen with his family, Wegner sold his closet to his neighbour Chief Physician Uldall at Ordrup Jagtvej. It has since been handed down in the Uldall family.
The closet is to be seen as a prototype for a series of closets made by furnituremaker Ry Møbler in the 1950's and 1960's.
