Danish Art Deco Lounge Chairs by Alfred Christensen, Walnut & Mohair, 1940s
About the Item
Exceptional pair of Danish Art Deco lounge chairs designed by Alfred Christensen, dating to the 1940s and sourced in Provence, France. Sculptural and refined from every angle, the chairs feature beautifully shaped walnut frames with sweeping open arms, gently flared backs, and a striking architectural silhouette that bridges Art Deco elegance with the clean restraint of Scandinavian design. The pair has been fully restored, with the walnut frames professionally refinished to highlight the depth and movement of the grain. The chairs have been newly upholstered in luxurious olive green mohair, chosen for its rich texture, soft sheen, and beautiful tonal variation. The backs are finished with button tufting, while crisp single piping outlines the seats and backs for a tailored, high-end finish. Speckled brass nailhead trim follows the inner and outer line of the arms, adding a subtle decorative detail that complements the warmth of the oak. Generously proportioned and exceptionally comfortable, the chairs offer deep seats, supportive backs, and elegant arm height, making them ideal for a living room, library, bedroom, or sophisticated lounge setting. Their combination of sculptural form, premium materials, and meticulous restoration makes this pair a standout example of collectible Danish design from the 1940s.
