This lounge chair showcases the iconic Danish Modern style known for its clean lines, functional elegance, and use of natural materials. We have treated the chair with a delicate refinish - preserving the historically correct so that originality, patina and history are preserved for posterity. One of the standout features of this elegant lounge chair is its arc-shaped armrests crafted in moulded elm wood.

The patina on the wood suggests the chair's age and history, adding character and charm to the piece. This lounge chair encapsulates the essence of mid-20th-century design innovation, reflecting the era's emphasis on both form and function.
