Chieftain Chair

Description

Probably the most well-known of Finn Juhl’s chairs and one of his most iconic masterpieces, the Chieftain Chair represents the peak of his career as a furniture designer. With its bold volume and characteristic shapes, the chair draws inspiration from foreign cultures and primitive weaponry. At its introduction in 1949, the chair marked a renewal of the Danish furniture design tradition and today, it is regarded as one of the most important exponents of the Danish Modern movement. The chair is upholstered by hand in Denmark in selected, exclusive leather types. The frame is available in oak or walnut.
