Exceptionally rare set of four mid century modern Viscount chairs by Dan Johnson for Selig. Fully refinished and reupholstered in a soft ivory leather from Aeristo's Volaero collection.
Solid beechwood frames in a walnut finish with iconic curved brass arms. Brass fasteners connect the seatbacks to the frames, becoming part of the aesthetic. Viscount chairs were produced by both Selig in Denmark and Kodawood in the USA. The Kodawood variation had only one brass fastener per side.
Typically found alone or in pairs, the Viscount was likely designed as an accent chair. Having a set of four opens up the possibility of using them as dining chairs as well.
One of the chairs is stamped "Made in Denmark", which we've yet to see on a Viscount chair.
A beautiful and collectible set in expertly restored condition.
