48 Chair
48 Chair by Finn Juhl for House of Finn Juhl.
The 48 chair was first presented at the Cabinet Maker's Guild exhibition in 1948. Although not the first collaboration between Finn Juhl and maker Niels Vodder, the design was deemed by one commentator to have reached 'a new level, best classified as a new school of design.'
The craftsmanship behind this chair comes from Finn Juhl's emphasis on the Gesamtkunstwerk, or an aesthetic whole created through attention to detail in every aspect of the piece. It features a strong yet delicate poise, with ergonomic seat cushions that hug the figure of the sitter whilst providing ample support. The chair has an organic expression, with gently curved lines that make it equally well suited to traditional or contemporary interiors.
