Vintage Sixties/Seventies Jacobsen coffee table and Swan chair models by Swedish toy manufacturer Brio

The Brio Scanditoy Mobilia range of design classic miniatures were made in the Sixties and Seventies for children to use in dolls' houses but were also much loved by adults, a fact played upon in the Seventies advertisement reproduced below.

This model of an Arne Jacobsen coffee table has a plastic wood-effect top and metal legs, stands 3.6cm (1.4 inches) high with a tabletop diameter of 8cm (3 inches), and is in very good condition.

The Swan chair has an acrylic body covered in turquoise 'fuzzy felt'-like fabric, and swivels freely on its metal legs. It stands 5.8cm (2.3 inches) tall and is in good condition with some wear to the upholstery fabric at exposed points as the pictures below show.
