As co-owner and chief designer of Slagelse Møbelværk, Alfred Christensen played a pivotal role in the Danish furniture industry during the 1940s and 1950s. He was both a manufacturer and a talented artist—a rare combination in the Danish furniture scene of that era. It was largely due to his natural flair for design and his keen eye for trends that the company rose to prominence in Danish Mid-Century furniture production and achieved global success.

From the late 1940s, Alfred Christensen increasingly commissioned renowned architects to design modern product lines for the teak era of Danish Modernism. He focused more on managing the expanding company but continued to design occasionally. Even at the age of 70, he created the Boomerang chair, which remains one of Slagelse Møbelværk's most iconic pieces.

Perfect behind a desk or as a stand alone accent chair this icon of the 1960s is ideal for collectors searching for an authentically vintage boomerang chair that is ready for a lifetime more of use.
