Villy Sørensen for Frederik Stærmose Lounge Chair in Oak

Villy Sørensen for Frederik Stærmose lounge chair, oak, fabric, metal, Denmark, 1950s

This elegant and sculptural lounge chair was designed by Danish cabinetmaker Villy Sørensen for Frederik Stærmose during the 1950s. Carefully constructed in solid oak, the chair exemplifies the precision and warmth of Scandinavian modern woodworking. The chair's expressive silhouette is defined by a tall, winged backrest with subtle inward curves that embrace the sitter, and armrests that exhibit beautiful proportions and natural form. The seat and back are upholstered in a textured, earthy brown fabric with button tufting and adorned with a row of decorative nailhead trim.
