Every line feels intentional, from the gracefully angled walnut frame to the flowing barrel-shaped leather shell that appears to float effortlessly within its wooden structure.

Kofod-Larsen was celebrated for creating furniture that balanced refined proportions with remarkable comfort, and these chairs are a beautiful example of that philosophy. The sculpted armrests, tapered legs, and sweeping curves showcase the organic forms that define the best of Danish Modern design, while the open framework gives the chairs a light, architectural presence.

Both chairs have been professionally refinished, highlighting the warmth and richness of the walnut, and newly reupholstered in premium black Italian leather. The contrast between the deep leather and glowing wood grain creates a striking visual statement that feels inviting. Original Selig medallions remain intact, further affirming their heritage and authenticity.

More than simply seating, these chairs bring a sense of refinement, craftsmanship, and timeless design to an interior. Their sculptural silhouettes command attention from every angle, offering the rare combination of comfort, collector appeal, and enduring mid-century character that has made Ib Kofod-Larsen one of Denmark’s most sought-after designers.
