  • Description

    This ultra cool Danish desk chair looks fantastic from all angles with its beautiful curves and lines. Perfect for your lounge, office, hallway, study or bedroom, this piece combines stunning mid century looks with fantastic design.

    The real focus of Danish design, the object that had the longest-lasting influence, was the chair. Cabinet pieces were important, but the chair was the fundamental form. A chair is the hardest thing to design because it’s got to be comfortable even though people are made in all different sizes, shapes, and forms. What’s comfortable to one person may not be comfortable to another, but there are some defining proportions that help to determine whether it’s comfortable or not.

    The physics of the chair are also important because if you don’t get it right, the thing can collapse on you. In fact Mies van der Rohe once said that designing a chair was much more difficult than designing a skyscraper. That’s got to be somewhat of an exaggeration, but the important thing is it’s a much more technical subject than we might realise.

    There is a repair to the inside of one of the rear legs that is clearly visible (see photo). This doesn't detract from the chair's stunning good looks and condition, otherwise, is very nice.

    W55 x D48 x H78 (Seat Height: 45cm)
