Important Arne Hovmand-Olsen Armchair in Black Leather, Oak, Teak, Denmark, 1952
-
Description
This exceptionally rare armchair was designed by Arne Hovmand-Olsen and produced by J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik in Aarhus, Denmark. Model no. 50 was first presented at the Fredericia Furniture Fair in 1952. It was produced only in very limited numbers and was documented and praised in several leading Danish architecture and design magazines of the time.
The striking form is defined by elegant, curved lines throughout the legs, stretchers, and armrests. The frame is crafted from solid oak, with armrests and feet made of contrasting darker solid teak. The chair is upholstered in beautifully patinated black leather, featuring deep-stitched button details.
With its dynamic lines, modern, airy appearance, and refined materials, this chair is considered one of Hovmand-Olsen’s finest and rarest designs.
The chair is in overall very good condition, with only minimal wear to the wood consistent with age and use. The vintage black leather is evenly and overall attractively patinated. -
