70,5 x 87 x h67 cm (seat height 28 cm)

Structure in solid oak, lacquered, soaped or black lacquered.
Seat, backrest and straps in natural or black leather.

One of Børge Mogensen’s more unusual chairs. He designed the Hunting Chair in 1950 for the autumn exhibition of the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild, whose theme that year was ‘The Hunting Lodge’. The frame is made of oak, while seat and back are of butt leather with adjustable straps – a rustic and masculine combination that Mogensen developed later in other pieces such as the Spanish Chair. The eye-catching and dynamic design with a front seat edge height of just 30 cm is typical for the era.

Price in natural oak with no finish and black leather.
