Skagerak Denmark Drachmann Collection
The Drachmann line is the quintessence of classic Scandinavian garden furniture design. The idea of the picturesque, white painted garden furniture goes all the way back to Skagen's golden age, when artists such as Kroyer, Ancher and Drachmann took their inspiration from the unique scenery and special light that characterizes the northern tip of Denmark. Pictures from this era show the first examples of characteristic white Skagen furniture made by local cabinetmakers. This was the furniture and the aura that surrounded them as they stood in beautiful gardens amidst the picturesque scenery that inspired the modern white-painted furniture we produce today.
