Story
Post-war Denmark became the unlikely epicenter of a global design revolution that prioritized the 'human scale' over the heavy, ornate furniture of the past.
Maker / Origin
While many workshops produced this style, the refined joinery is consistent with the work of Niels Otto Møller, who founded J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik in 1944.
Condition & Value
The teak frame appears to be in good structural condition with a lovely deep patina. As a single side chair, the value is driven by the maker and the condition of the teak.
