Description
Offered here is a handsome two-volume set of Scandinavian Design auction catalogues from Wright, documenting their 2014 sales devoted to classic Scandinavian furniture, lighting, and decorative arts. Both catalogues are housed in the original natural-cloth slipcase lettered “SCANDINAVIAN DESIGN,” making this a useful and attractive reference set for collectors, dealers, and design lovers.
These catalogues cover the 8 May 2014 and 20 November 2014 auctions and are richly illustrated with color photographs, detailed lot descriptions, estimates, and sale information. The books highlight work by leading Scandinavian modernists and provide an excellent snapshot of the market for mid-century design in the early 2010s, as well as a ready reference for researching provenance of pieces that passed through these sales.

Condition
Pre-owned set in overall very good condition. The slipcase shows light shelf wear and a small mark or two to the cloth, but remains solid and square. The books sit snugly in the case; interiors are bright with only minor handling wear typical of gently used reference copies. No major tears or damage noted. Please review all photos carefully to judge condition for yourself.
A clean, well-presented reference set that adds both visual inspiration and solid documentation to any library focused on Scandinavian or mid-century modern design.
