wikkelsø designed the v11 series for holger christiansen in denmark around 1965. He took an interest in how people actually sit, allowing room to turn in a chair or settle into one corner. In the v11-a, that idea is expressed in the proportions of the seat and the way the arms and back enclose it.

the original brown buffalo leather with nice overall patina gives this pair a character of its own. The natural folds and grain of the hide give the design a striking appearance, while the minimalistic oak legs give the chairs a lighter appearance.

a striking pair which will elevate any seating area with their impressive character. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
