Spoke-Back Chair
A classic design from Børge Mogensen's youth, the spoke-back chair matches his ever-popular spoke-back sofa. He designed it in 1945, when he and his peer Hans J. Wegner furnished a three-room flat for the autumn exhibition of the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild. However, the sofa, a combination of classic two-seater sofa with English daybed and French chaise long, was too sophisticated for post-war taste and did not go into production until 1963 - this time with resounding success. Available in oak, beech and walnut. |
