Mid-century furniture by Sibast Mobler (Denmark)

Sibast Mobler is a Danish furniture manufacturer that was

founded in 1908 by Peder Olsen Sibast, a skilled carpenter who began making

furniture in his workshop in the Danish countryside. In the 1940s the company

was passed down to his son, Helge Sibast, who was also a talented carpenter and

designer. Helge Sibast led the company to international success in the 1950s

and 1960s with his innovative designs, which were characterized by their clean

lines, simple forms, and high-quality craftsmanship.

Some of Helge Sibast's most iconic designs include the

Sibast No. 7, No. 8, and No. 9 dining chairs, which are still in production

today. These chairs are made from solid oak and feature a distinctive X-shaped

backrest. They are known for their comfort, durability, and timeless style.

In addition to his own designs, Helge Sibast also

collaborated with other renowned Danish designers, such as Arne more... Vodder.

Vodder's designs were known for their elegant simplicity, and he worked with

Sibast Furniture to create a number of iconic pieces, including the Sibast

Vodder sofa and the Sibast Vodder coffee table.

The company was passed down to Helge Sibast's grandson,

Ditlev Sibast, in the early 2000s. Ditlev Sibast relaunched the company in

2012, and he has since been working to revive the Sibast name and bring its

classic designs back to market.

Sibast Furniture remains a leading manufacturer of

mid-century modern furniture, conmtinuing to produce its classic designs, as

well as new pieces that are inspired by the work of Helge Sibast and other Danish

designers.
