Today I was introduced to B&W Market in Copenhagen. This is a large, industrial warehouse offering probably the widest range of furniture and collectibles you’ll find in the city..
The market has been operating for over 30 years and features 10 independent vendors. Several of them were working their stalls today and I really enjoyed learning a little bit about some of the unusual pieces there. I found quite an array of Danish vintage furniture designs. Most of the pieces come from the 20th century -- lamps, interior pieces, interesting chairs, chests of drawers and, of course, plenty of Royal Copenhagen.
My favorite? The Frost Wishbone Mute "Waiter" or "Servant" (here in the U.S. we call it a coat rack).
Inspired by tree trunks and branches, it is beautifully crafted from stainless steel with powder-coated parts. This one is vintage but they are still manufactured today in a variety of finishes, including copper.
