This is the highly sought-after PJ56 high back model dating back to the 1960s. A true gem for connoisseurs of vintage furniture, this piece exudes the timeless appeal of Scandinavian design.
The chair features a stunning teak wood frame that has been meticulously refinished to restore its original charm. The quality of the workmanship can be observed in its sturdy construction and the beautiful, natural grain of the teak wood. The frame's design is highlighted by a beautiful curved back, which not only enhances the chair's aesthetic appeal but also offers excellent comfort.
The seat has been expertly restored with new strapping, providing solid support and durability. It has been reupholstered with new foam and finished in an attractive red leather, adding a striking contrast to the warm teak wood. The overall quality of this restoration ensures that this exquisite piece retains its original character while meeting the comfort expectations of modern living.
The chair measures approximately 25.5"W x 30"D x 37.5"H, with a seat height of 15.75". Its modest dimensions make it a perfect addition to any living space, large or small.
The blend of organic form, rich materiality, and minimalist aesthetics makes this piece a versatile addition to a range of interior styles. It would seamlessly integrate into a mid-century modern home, complementing other vintage pieces with its authentic period design. Alternatively, in a contemporary setting, this chair could serve as a statement piece, injecting a touch of vintage charm into a modern environment. It would also beautifully accentuate Scandinavian, bohemian, or eclectic interiors, adding a layer of texture and warmth. For industrial or loft-style spaces, its organic shape and materials could serve as a softening counterpoint to more austere, metallic elements.
Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Danish design history. This PJ56 hight back model is more than just a chair—it's a work of art, a conversation starter, and a timeless piece that will undoubtedly continue to appreciate with age. less
