The "Montana" line was designed in the 1970's and continued on until at least 1989. I don't have the production date on this particular set. The frames are constructed of solid teak. Unlike many of the other Danish styled seating furniture, these use a heavy nylon woven seat deck that is reiforced with metal bars. It is a much sturdier and more supportive system than the straps or
"webbing" other makers used. The leather used is also very high quality with the feeling of glove leather, nothing like the plasticized bonded leathers seen today in some of the "big box" local furniture retailers. There are 2 small cracks in the leather on the sofa and one small cut on the loveseat. Otherwise they show great patina, something I actually prefer on leather as opposed to looking brand new. Visually, the design of the sofa and loveseat remind me of some of Percival Lafer's designs with the appearance of soft leather being draped over a wood frame. These aren't as quite as "low slung" as Lafer's designs but the frames are more sculpted and more substantial.
This set also includes a large coffee table and I side table. Both are constructed similarly to the sofas with solid teak frames. They each have 1/2" thick smoked glass tops. The side table has a chip in one edge of the glass and a couple chips in the teak on the top of one leg. The coffee table has a couple of small chips in the glass edge that aren't seen unless the glass is removed from the frame.
All the frames on these pieces are in original condition and show age appropriate wear with small nicks and scratches.
These are investment quality pieces with great comfort and style to match and ready to fit perfectly in a vintage modern inspired space.
