This masterful creation, inspired by the sweeping curves of the bow and stern of a Viking ship, beautifully exemplifies Scandinavian design with its perfect balance of function and aesthetics. It was renamed "Harp Chair" when a journalist noticed the similarity between the braided ropes of the seat and the strings of a harp, a detail which highlights Høvelskov's elegance and creativity.

This chair is distinguished by a unique construction where its curved legs meet at a central point, reflecting Høvelskov's architectural and minimalist expertise. The rope seat adapts to the shape of its user, ensuring optimal comfort, while the solid ash wood structure enhances every curve, recalling the sculpted front of a Viking ship.
