DEPENDING ON YOUR vintage, you might be buying a table or chair that's older than you at 1B2G. All its furniture is easily 50 to 60 years old, with a rich history behind it.
1B2G may well be the only store of its kind in Singapore, specialising in rare and original furniture and lighting by renowned Danish designers of the 20th century, such as Hans Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Poul Henningsen, Arne Vodder and Bodil Kjaer.
1B2G founder Lynette Wong started collecting vintage furniture about 10 years ago. Her collection, sourced from shops and at auctions in Europe, became so large that she wanted to introduce like-minded homeowners to the beauty of vintage furniture and sell some pieces off at the same time.
