Dansk Denmark Staved Teak Ice Bucket - SOLD

December 7, 2019

One of our favorite designs from Dansk, the iconic 'Congo' staved teak ice bucket, designed by Jens Quistgaard.

Designed in 1961 and inspired by the hulls of viking ships, this staved teak design is sometimes called the "Viking'. It is one of Quistgaard's most famous pieces; it has become an iconic symbol of mid-century design. By 1966 it had been added to the permanent collections of 23 art museums around the world, including The Louvre, New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art and London's Victoria and Albert Museum.

This highly collectible ice bucket would be a marvelous addition to midcentury decor, whether displayed or pressed into service at your next party. The piece is quite versatile and can be used as intended (see vintage advertisment above), or could hold flowers or other items. A beautiful example of fine design and craftsmanship.

It is in excellent vintage condition with only very minor wear. Black liner in excellent condition.
