Helge Vestergaard Jensen Rocking Chair designed 1959
About the Item
Designed in 1959 by Helge Vestergaard-Jensen, this rosewood edition was made by the Niels Roth Andersen, Alderman of the Copenhagen Guild of Furniture Makers from the mid-90s until his retirement in 2016.
Designed in 1961, Helge Vestergaard Jensen’s rocking chair is chiseled and skeletal. The armrests take the form of a forearm and wrist. Missing is a hand, inviting you to complete the picture. The fluted-leather skin draws the eye vertically and narrows your perspective, so maintaining a taut, sharp and modern look.
Made by Niels Roth Andersen, Alderman of the Cabinetmakers Guild of Copenhagen in 2015 using rosewood from a sustainable plantation in Costa Rica (dalbergia retusa). The rosewood rocking frame weighs just under 10kg (when disassembled from the leather bucket seat) , meaning that a rosewood permit is not required for international shipping.
