We scoured Los Angeles to find the perfect set of chairs for our teak Danish modern draw leaf table. We found Denmark 50 and were impressed with the incredible range of available chairs, many restored and re-upholstered. We were able to find six beautiful teak Rosengren Hansen chairs that are the perfect complement to our table. Wayne was very helpful in helping us choose a chair that worked with our budget, while also having a beautiful design. We picked a gorgeous fabric that worked well with the chairs and warm teak tones. The set of six chairs were restored and re-upholstered for pickup in one week. Denmark 50 has an incredible collection of tables, chairs, lamps, pottery, lamps and decorative arts. Their team is truly dedicated to preserving and restoring the great Danish designers and manufacturers. Wayne's understanding and knowledge of all things related to Danish modern design and art is impressive. We are very happy with our purchase and look forward to enjoying them for many years to come. read more

See all

Get your boxes out of the street. There have been almost 50 empty boxes just sitting on the side of your store from a furniture delivery for going on a month. You live in a neighborhood. They have been sitting on the grass so long it as all dead underneath. If you have the time to have an entire truck load of furniture delivered - find the time to have the boxes removed. I guarantee if your store was broken into you would be there immediately. Respect your neighbors and The neighborhood you have a shop in! read more

Ahhh, Denmark. Many of you fine Americans may think that the only thing that the mighty land of Denmark has given the world are...danishes. And while that's a fine and tasty contribution, there are so many other great things that have come to us via Denmark and here is my list... For starters, ME. My mom is Danish and c'mon, I'm friggin amazing!! (Please note the sarcasm there) Viggo Mortensen. He's a half Dane, but 100% hot! That Diana H character. She's part Danish and let's face it, she's a great yelper and damn funny and cute. Brigitte Nielsen. Would anyone have actually watched the Flava Flav reality show if that romance hadn't happened? I think not. Janet Reno. She's one hot broad who claims Danish-American status, as does Jessica Alba, Scarlett Johansson and even Kelsey Grammer who's technically from the U.S. Virgin Islands, which once belonged to Denmark. There's also Beowulf, The Little Mermaid and Thumbalena...although those last two I simply pulled from Wikipedia, so it's not like I've seen them at the Too Cool For School Danish Meetings once a week. Anyhoo, us Danes also brought furniture to the world and personally, I hate Danish furniture. It's cold, boring and sterile. I like my furniture to feel like a nice glass of red wine on a cold winter's night. I want it to be all squishy and comfy and other words that end in y, not a rock hard couch on a piece of fawn-colored wood that looks like it was zapped of personality from Day One and never stood a chance. However, if you like boring Danish furniture, then Denmark 50 may just be the place for you. They have a ton of the most modern and bland stuff I've ever seen. But remember, that is what it's supposed to look like, so really, that's a compliment. Would I ever buy anything here, never, but you should if you are into the Dane stuff. The prices were totally fair and the staff was delightful....much like many Danes...well except for Janet Reno, I know she's edible and all, but I hear she can be a real piece of work. :) read more

Denmark 50 - Furniture Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Denmark 50 is THE place to go in LA if you are looking for Danish Mid-Century furniture. We were looking for chairs, and Wayne helped us find 6 teak chairs that were in our budget, and then he helped us pick a wonderful fabric for their recovering. We love them and they match perfectly with a teak table we recently purchased. Wayne's store is full of treasures, from Danish pottery, to Bauer pieces, to tables and other furniture. But this is certainly a treasure trove of chairs. Thank you! read more

Rudest, snobbiest people ever. Skip this place unless you like being insulted. Short Version: I want to make it extremely clear that this is an establishment that does not just have a distaste for, but makes a proud display of disrespecting to families and children. People with service animals and wheelchairs should be warmed as well... as it is clear that anyone entering their store with anything but white gloves will be be treated like a criminal. Long Version: I have never before been spoken to with such derision. After witness the , two other couples left as well. We were not casual passers-by killing time, we were shopping for furniture. We are well dressed, our older children are mellow and obedient, and the quiet baby was in a stroller. There was nothing about our demeanor nor our appearance that should have warranted such immediate nastiness. I was immediately glared at with palpable contempt upon entering. I found this odd, but blew it off. Sometimes people need to see you are a serious shopper. Or they need to witness that your children are not the "bull-in-a-china-shop" sort. And, some people just don't like kids which is why our are kids are were parented to behave impeccably on outings. I looked around for about one minute before one of the men said loudly across the whole store - in a tone that rivaled that of the worst lecture of my teen years - to "BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR STROLLER". I have literally never in my adult life been spoken to in such a tone. It was the tone and the look, not the words that were outrageous. Still, I kept my cool and gave them the benefit of the doubt. Then I realized they were still glaring at me, and now whispering loudly. Everyone in the place became aware of this. We all glanced at each other in disbelief. Then, to everyone's obvious amazement... he spoke up again, this time even nastier... "Miss, you need to be careful. Especially around the leather items." (As if I had ignored him the first time and had been careening into everything!) The tone was dripping with disgust. At this point my husband, in his typical quiet manner said "let's just go". Which we did, followed by the two other couples, who both spoke up as soon as we were outside. The consensus was that no one could believe, in the age of Yelp, that anyone could be not only careless but hateful to a potential customer. Upon reflection, the fact that every chair upon entering has a sign that says "Do not touch" or "Do not sit" should have been a red flag. A furniture seller that refuses to allow serious potential buyer to even touch their goods is out of touch and absurd. read more

Modern Furniture Store with an amazing selection. They specialize in major designer items, but have quality no-name items as well. Suprisingly reasonable prices. Visit the website and get a boner from the overview pics. Also have free Tootsie pops, which saved this travel wary customer from certain meltdown. www.denmark50.com read more

Love this place! Over the past few years I've purchased a cabinet, chest of drawers, and a bookcase from them. All of the pieces are in really beautiful shape and there's always something new every time I stop by. Prices vary depending on whether it's a name designer or an unknown, but I always feel like it's reasonable even if it isn't all in my price range. read more

This place gets five stars for it's great selection of Finn Juhl and Hans Wegner pieces. I've never seen so many in one place. So gorgeous and pretty reasonable prices (well, reasonable for a non-L.A. person who doesn't have access to great mid-century stuff). I want THEM ALL. The owner is a little unapproachable and his rapport with customers could use a little work. No matter, I'll be back, because I WANT THEM ALL. read more

This is a cool store and the inventory is pretty amazing. The prices are high of course, as it is on Melrose, but not outrageously high. If you're into this style of furniture, it's certainly worth a visit. The only negative about the experience will be the owner. He's not very personable, and it's anybody's guess if he'll even be there when you stop in. But he knows his stuff about the items and their designers. So if you can get by his unpleasant nature, you'll be glad you visited. read more

This place is AWESOME! Having had the pleasure of going to Denmark a few years back, I rarely seen anything in the States that has to do with actual Danish-anything. Even our pastries are poor substitutes. Anyhow, back to the review. Denmark 50 is worth going to on a day when you feel creative, and the need to explore. With a wide variety of amazing Danish home essentials, I'd very much recommend coming here if you can. read more

I live on the east coast and have just received the vintage chair I purchased after seeing it online. I had at least a dozen questions about the chair as all I had was the one picture on the website. The owner answered all of them and even took half a dozen photos to send to me so that I could make an informed decision. He responded quickly to all my inquiries. When I received the chair, it was actually in better condition than I expected. It is beautiful and I love it. I have to say that this purchase from start to finish has been among the best buying experiences I have had, a rarity in this day and age. Carolyn K. read more

I thought I'd written a review of Denmark 50 already, but I guess not. 5 stars for the furniture. I love Mid-Century Danish furniture. Their furniture is all wonderful, and very high quality, so that's great. They clearly take great care in their restoration. However, every single time I've been in, the owner acts as if he's doing me a favor by answering my questions. It's really obnoxious and off-putting, and frankly, the last time I went in (looking for a mid century rocking chair) it was just too much. It felt like everything was pricer than it used to be (perhaps I'm imagining this and that they're just pricier than I'm willing to pay, as in there are chairs priced at $1200-1800 that I'd pay more like $400-900 for). Also, anyone who's willing to pay upwards of a thousand dollars for a single piece of furniture really ought not be treated as if just being in the store is an imposition on the owner. He really ought to either change his attitude or stay in back and have someone else work up front (though I imagine it's tough to find someone with comparable knowledge). Some cool ceramics, too. read more

I've been shopping here for probably 15 years- it used to be be somewhat reasonably priced and the service was more cheerful. The past few times I have been in I have been trying to ignore the atrocious attitude of the owner but I just can't take it any more. He is so obviously annoyed by customers that I have to wonder why he doesn't hire someone else to handle sales. I went in last week and he barely acknowledged me and couldn't be bothered to show me anything. I had cash in hand to buy for chairs and he wasn't interested in anything other than answering his phone midsentence without so much as an 'excuse me.' I've made my last visit to this store which is sad because I have a lot of amazing pieces that I have collected from here over the years. Two stars because of the zero star service and attitude, 5 star furniture for sale and 3 star pricing. read more

As someone who frequents the Rose Bowl Flea Market in Pasadena, I can say that mid-century and danish pieces are everywhere in LA and the prices here were ridiculous for many of the no-name finished pieces. However, the stock here is enormous and the owners are willing to sell their unfinished stock as well at much more reasonable prices. Definitely check it out if you are looking for one quality piece or a deal on some fixer uppers. read more

They have a big selection of ceramics. And they do an amazing job of restoring old pieces. I bought a little rosewood chest of drawers from them that I saw before they spiffed it up. Beautiful finish. read more
