A pair of Model 1748 lounge chairs designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen, Denmark, circa 1950s. These elegant armchairs exemplify the refined organic modernism for which Hvidt became renowned, combining sculptural lines, generous proportions and exceptional comfort within a compact footprint.
Each chair features a softly curved shell with gently flared arms flowing seamlessly into the backrest, creating an inviting and cocooning form. Upholstered in green wool, the subtle button detailing to the back cushions and the clean, architectural profile reflect the balance between craftsmanship and restraint that characterises the best of mid-century Danish design.
The chairs stand on tapered stained beech teak legs, their warm tones complementing the textured olive-green upholstery. The low, relaxed stance and broad seat cushions offer excellent comfort while maintaining a light visual presence, making them equally suited to contemporary and period interiors.
