Set of 4 Niels Møller Model 78 Teak Dining Chairs by J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik

About the Item

Designed by the visionary Niels Otto Møller in 1962, the model 78 chair represents the pinnacle of his design career which helped drive the famed Scandinavian modern movement that swept through postwar Europe and, eventually, the United States. Featuring gentle curves formed from tropical hardwoods such as Brazilian rosewood and teak and other natural materials such as paper cord the model 78 dining chair is the archetypal example of minimalist Danish design. These chairs are an homage to the radical designer who originally conceived them. Featuring new, genuine leather in warm café tones that blend perfectly with the rich, solid teak frames these chairs are as comfortable as they are aesthetically pleasing. New straps and cushions add maximum comfort and are sure to give this set a new lease on a long life of use. These exquisite chairs are truly one of a kind and when they're gone, they're gone forever.
