Stunning first edition Grasshopper lounge chair designed by Preben Fabricius and Jørgen Kastholm, manufactured by Kill International in Denmark in 1967. This very rare original piece has a chrome metal with canvas base and is upholstered in the most beautiful quality black leather. It is a stunning and also very comfortable chair that would make a true eye-catcher in any modern interior. There have been a lot of remakes of this chair, but this is a real first edition making it an extremely rare find. In good original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving a beautiful patina. Inspired by the 1920s functionalistic pioneers and the 1960s innovative Scandinavian language of form, Fabricius & Kastholm designed a range of minimalist furniture that in recent years has enjoyed a renaissance in the consumers' hearts and homes. Fabricius was trained as a cabinetmaker by Niels Vodder before attending the School for Interior Design where he studied under Finn Juhl. It was there that he met the blacksmith Jørgen Kastholm. They had a common approach to furniture design, never wanting to compromise on aesthetics. In 1961, the pair set up a design studio in a Gentofte cellar without any firm arrangements with manufacturers. In 1965, they exhibited at the furniture fair in Fredericia where the German furniture manufacturer Alfred Kill noticed their work. Kill had a reputation for high quality but initially Favricius and Kastholm were not keen to design furniture for factory production. Only when Kill offered them DM 2,500 a month each, with no preconditions, did they agree to work for him. They travelled to Stuttgart with their first designs for production in Kill's factory in nearby Fellbach. Their international breakthrough came at the Cologne Fair in 1966 when they exhibited a whole series of office and home furniture leading to orders from ten large furniture concerns. Their minimalistic designs, both attractive and comfortable, were usually in steel and leather. The tulip chair, the grasshopper chair and the scimitar chair are among their most successful works. The pieces of furniture they produced during their seven-year period of cooperation from 1961 to 1968 were so distinctive that many are still produced today as classics. As a result of disagreements, the pair decided to terminate their cooperation in 1968. Fabricius was awarded the Illum Prize (1969) and, together with Jørgen Kastholm, the first German Gute Form prize for their FK Tulip chair...
