Harp Chair Attributed to Jorgen Hovelskov

About the Item

A nice vintage Harp chair was likely designed by Jorgen Hovelskov and manufactured by Christensen & Larsen, Mobelhadvaerk, Copenhagen in 1960s. Its unique form was inspired by a Viking ship bow section. The expertly crafted frame, in solid walnut, anchors the hypnotic weaving of the flag line, giving the chair an airy optical complexity. The current one has a taller and narrower profile than the usual model by Jorgen Hovelskov.
