About the Item
Immerse yourself in the timeless allure of Catalan Modernism with the "Kursaal" Theater Chair, a sculptural masterpiece from Manresa, Spain, circa 1927. An embodiment of organic shapes and avant-garde design, this chair is a testament to the artistic spirit of Catalan Modernism.
Crafted with meticulous detail, the sculptural armchair features a harmonious blend of iron and wood, showcasing the era's penchant for combining industrial materials with organic forms. The Kursaal chair not only provides a functional seat but stands as a symbol of the innovative design ethos prevalent during the early 20th century.
In its original condition, the chair boasts minor wear consistent with its age and use, gracefully preserving a beautiful patina that adds depth and character. Whether placed as a focal point in a modern space or as a nostalgic addition to a collector's trove, the Kursaal Theater Chair invites you to appreciate the enduring elegance of Catalan Modernism and the craftsmanship of a bygone era.

- Finn Juhl Pelican Chair Upholstered in Gotland SheepskinBy Finn JuhlLocated in Barcelona, BarcelonaPelican chair designed by Finn Juhl in 1940, relaunched in 2001. Manufactured by House of Finn Juhl in Denmark. Pelican chair was probably the one furthest ahead of its time. When it was presented at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition in 1940, it stood out with its unusual shape and sturdy legs. The characteristic soft and organic shape is almost like a body holding a body. When you sit down, the chair practically gives you a friendly hug. Like many of Finn Juhl’s later designs, the chair offers several comfortable ways to sit. As a tribute to the Pelican Chair House of Finn Juhl is launching it in natural sheepskin from Gotland. This upholstery gives the chair an individual and unique expression, as the warmth of the sheepskin pleasantly underlines the character of the sculptural chair. The new edition of the Pelican chair will be available from December 1st. Because the supply of sheepskin from Gotland is seasonal, the quantity for sale will be limited.
