Contemporan

Modernity is a leading gallery in Stockholm, Sweden, dealing in 20th century design. We specialize in Scandinavian Design: furniture, ceramics, glass, lighting and jewellery. Our range consists of both well known classics and rare pieces by artists such as Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Alvar Aalto, Axel Salto, Berndt Friberg, to name but a few. The emphasis is on post-war design.

Modernity supplies pieces to international collectors and museums. Our busy central showroom has also become a meeting place for anyone interested in 20th century design.

The aim is to sell pieces in as good original condition as possible, but since the stock is vintage there may be some wear.

If you don't have the possibility to visit the showroom you can order by phone or online. Foreign payments can be made by wire transfer or credit card. The buyer pays for any transport but we can arrange packing and shipping. The customer is also responsible for any eventual customs and import charges. We update the website approximately once a month. If you would like to be added to our mailing list please send us an e-mail by clicking here. You will automatically be notified when we update. We offer a source facility where clients can request that we find specific items on their behalf.
