Danish modern 1960 armchair by master cabinet maker Jacob Kjaer

About the Item

This Danish modern armchair by Jacob Kjaer, a revered master cabinet maker and modernist pioneer, embodies the essence of mid-century design sophistication. Crafted in 1960 in Copenhagen, it stands as a testament to Kjaer's innovative vision and meticulous craftsmanship. Constructed from luxurious mahogany and supple leather, this chair exudes both elegance and durability. Its sleek lines and minimalist design showcase Kjaer's commitment to functional beauty, a hallmark of Danish modernism. The chair's recent restoration and reupholstering with pure vegetal leather demonstrate a dedication to preserving its original essence while ensuring its longevity. Retaining its manufacturer's label, this piece carries with it a sense of authenticity and provenance. Moreover, the use of original natural materials in the padding speaks to Kjaer's reverence for quality and sustainability, further enhancing the chair's allure to discerning collectors and aficionados of mid-century design. Overall, this rare Danish modern armchair by Jacob Kjaer is not merely a piece of furniture; it is a timeless work of art that embodies the intersection of craftsmanship, design innovation, and historical significance. Jacob Kjaer also executed furniture designs for other creators such as Flemming Lassen, Sigvard Bernadotte, Borge Mogensen, Grete Jalk, Kindt Larsen and Bender Madsen. About vegetal leather: VEGETAL is the epitome of authentic leather. Considered “naked”, it’s just as nature intended and is the type of Aniline leather that will develop a lovely, natural patina depending on its use.
