Set of 6 Kurt Østervig Black Leather Dining Chairs
About the Item
This refined set of six dining chairs by Danish designer Kurt Østervig exemplifies the sophistication and craftsmanship of Scandinavian modernism. Constructed from richly toned wood, the frames showcase elegant joinery, sleek silhouettes, and a warm, lustrous grain that adds visual depth and richness.
The chairs are upholstered in supple black leather, offering a luxurious contrast to the wood and providing lasting comfort. The gently curved backrests are designed for ergonomic support while maintaining a light, floating appearance. Their clean, understated lines and timeless materials make them a staple set.

Kurt Østervig
Kurt Ejvind Østervig was born in 1912 in Odense, Denmark. He was originally trained and worked as a shipbuilding engineer. However, by the 1930s Østervig shifted to furniture design because of his passion for woodworking.
Østervig's career as a furniture designer began at E. Knudsen’s architectural design studio in Odense. In 1947, Østervig opened his first own studio as a freelance furniture designer, with a focus on modern design. In the following decades, he worked with many of the leading Scandinavian furniture producers of the period.
Østervig was exceptionally versatile, designing furniture for hotels, cinemas, and won numerous design competitions during his career. He won awards at the Milan Triennale in 1953 and 1960. In the 1960s, one of Østervig’s designs was selected for an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
Østervig had a flair for the dramatic, infusing his furnishings with unique elements that stood out. From elegant, organic to coarse and purely functional furniture, his versatility earned him recognition.
