About the Item
This extraordinary Set of Four Brutalist oak dining chairs, designed by the celebrated Danish architect and designer Henning Kjaernulf, brings a spirited sense of Nordic craftsmanship and bold design. Kjaernulf’s work, which often blends the functional lines of Mid-Century Modern with the strong, textural qualities of Brutalist design, is currently enjoying a well-deserved resurgence for its distinctive character. The chairs feature a substantial, solid oak frame that gives them an almost throne-like presence, grounding them with quiet authority.
A defining feature is the undulating decorative back design—a signature of Kjaernulf’s more expressive oak pieces—which provides a striking, sculptural contrast to the otherwise solid structure. The original seats are upholstered in a neutral, beige tweedy fabric that complements the rich, naturally aged oak. The heavy, carved oak construction and pronounced grain work together to create a distinctive, authentic aesthetic that feels both primitive and artfully designed.
The chairs are offered in lovely vintage condition, which honors their well-lived history. They exhibit visible wear consistent with age and use, including marks and subtle patina on the oak, which only adds to their authentic charm and character, but there has been some refinishing to clean them up. Price is for the set of four; approximately 30+ additional chairs in varying designs are available individually. Please inquire for additional photos or to arrange a viewing.
