The 53 Chair was introduced at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition in 1953 and has always been one of Finn Juhl’s most sought after pieces. Originally designed for master joiner Niels Vodder, the 53 Chair is defined by an elegant, sculptural expression. The 53 Chair is available in a variety of textiles and leathers with legs in walnut or oak. An optional cushion is available to order.
In this design, it is in particular the uniquely detailed armrests, that make the chair interesting and elegant. Apart from the comfort that Finn Juhl is so famous for, the armrest of the 109 Chair are almost intimately shaped to fit a small hollowing at the tip, which perfectly fits the plum of a thumb. These details emphasize the expert precision of the craftsmanship.
The 109 Chair is executed in a light, sophisticated and appealing design fitting for both private homes and corporate settings. Its elegant and comfortable qualities make the chair a perfect fit for dining and conference rooms as well as hotels and restaurants.

DESIGNED BY
Finn Juhl
Rather than thinking in terms of practical construction, Finn Juhl had the mind-set of a sculptor, when he shaped a piece of furniture. In the 1940s and 1950s, this way of working had never been seen before. His ambition was to design furniture with movement and life. Finn Juhl took pride in making both the structurally supportive elements of the furniture and the seated person look as though they are floating.
