Sale price£1,514.43

Dining chairs, elm, leather, Denmark, 1930s/40s

An elegant ensemble of dining chairs crafted by a Danish cabinetmaker, reflecting the design principles that were prevalent during that period of time. The chairs exhibit a design that reflects the refinement of 18th-century English-style dining chairs. Their signature closely mirrors the distinguished work of Danish designer Ole Wanscher, created for the esteemed Danish cabinetmaker Jacob Kjaer. Additionally, the chairs bear a striking resemblance to the work of Danish designers Henning Helger and Egon Bro Petersen.

The model features a slender profile with subtle, yet visually interesting detailing, such as the curved T-shaped backrest with upward-pointing corners. The outline is underscored by its patinated red leather. The framework is made from premium elmwood, assembled through exquisite wood joinery. The apertures in the backrest and base impart the piece with a light character, while still preserving its solid structure. A design that blends fine craftsmanship with a sophisticated sensibility in a harmonious way.

Kindly note that the pieces are in good, used condition with signs of age and use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
