Jens Harald Quistgaard for Nissen Langå, set of four dining chairs model 530, oak, suede, Denmark, design 1964-65

Danish sculptor and designer Jens Harald Quistgaard (1919-2008) is particularly known for designing kitchenware and tableware. Although consisting of a smaller amount, his oeuvre incorporates home furnishings of excellent quality. These chairs are a great example of Quistgaard's brilliance and great craftsmanship. The chairs have an overall naturalistic appeal which is established by mimicking naturally occurring shapes reminiscent of nature. The wooden frame is organically shaped and together with the absence of strict angles, the chair attains a sculptural expression. The wood joints in the backrest specialize the design and highlight Quistgaard's great eye for detail. The seats are marked with 'RN'.

Dimensions of the chair: H 70.5 x W 60.7 x D 48.3 in cm
Seat Height: 43.50 cm

Jens Harald Quistgaard, dining table, oak, Denmark, 1960s

Danish sculptor and designer Jens Harald Quistgaard (1919-2008) is particularly known for designing kitchenware and tableware. Although consisting of a smaller amount, his oeuvre incorporates home furnishings of excellent quality. This table is a great testament of Quistgaard's brilliance and great craftsmanship. This design is currently extremely rare and therefore hard to find. The table embodies a clear construction that convinces visually through its strong lines and proportions. The leg is carved in a concave shape that bends subtly inwards in the middle. The base that consists of four feet holds the leg in position by means of wood joints. The way Quistgaard has designed the feet by alternating curved lines with straight lines and sharp angles is truly exceptional. In fact, this feature is the defining design element and attests to the excellent quality of this table and the expertise of its maker.
