"Model no. 14" Lounge Chair with Footstool for Horsnæs, Denmark 1960s

This beautiful and stylish “Model No. 14” lounge chair and footstool set was designed by Fredrik Fogh and Edoardo Bregani and made by the Danish manufacturer Horsnæs. With a wide range of styles, Horsnæs’ collaboration with Fogh and Bregani is a shining example of their reputation. The collaboration created this significant contribution, often sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts, as a testament to their craftsmanship and innovation.

The lounge chair is designed for ultimate comfort and relaxation. Its high backrest provides excellent support, while the chair's intricate, organic rattan wicker and bamboo frame showcases the attention to detail typical of Fogh and Bregani's work. The natural curves and open framework add a light and airy feel to any space. The broad, flared base of the chair and ottoman not only ensures stability but also adds to their sculptural appeal. The chair's ergonomic design, with its gently sloping seat and supportive back, invites you to relax and unwind. The ottoman perfectly complements the chair, offering visual and physically suitable support.

Crafted by skilled artisans, their rattan items are sought after again for good reason: this tree-climbing vine is surging in demand due to its durability and eco-friendly nature. Retailers and manufacturers became ever more creative with the material in the mid-20th century, crafting exquisite designs in forms and structures that were impossible with wood. The cushion's premium fabric gives a textural, comfortable feeling, and the free-flowing line embraces you at each seating. Smooth forms and delicate lines characterise this model in each detail, turning an everyday object into a piece of functional art through skilled craftsmanship.
