About the Item
Børge Jensen Safari Chair, Denmark, Mid-20th Century
A rare and refined safari chair designed by Børge Jensen, Denmark, circa mid-20th century. This piece exemplifies the elegant simplicity and functional craftsmanship of Danish modern design.
Constructed with a solid oak frame, the chair features wide sculpted armrests and a natural canvas sling seat and backrest, joined with pegged details that highlight Jensen’s attention to honest materials and joinery. The canvas subtly flexes with the sitter, creating both comfort and resilience, while the warm oak tones complement the natural textile.
The safari chair tradition, rooted in early campaign furniture, was embraced by Jensen and his Danish contemporaries for its blend of portability, durability, and refined minimalism. Today, the design endures as an icon of functional elegance.
Condition: Good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear. Oak frame retains its original patina, and the canvas sling shows light wear consistent with use and age.
Dimensions: 29.5" high, 26.25" wide, 24" deep with an arm height of 20", seat height of 14.75", seat width of 24", and seat depth of 20".
This Børge Jensen safari chair offers a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic piece of Danish modern design history — equally striking as a standalone statement chair or within a curated collection of Scandinavian classics.
