First Edition NV53 Chairs by Finn Juhl for Niels Vodder, Set of 2

About This Piece

Vintage Design

These are a very fine pair of NV53 chairs designed by a master of chair design, Finn Juhl and made by a master cabinet maker, Niels Vodder. The beautiful shaped arms are held in place by small brass supports.

We bought these from their original owner in Denmark who bought them new in 1956, and they had cared for them with the original fabric until now, sadly it was too worn to leave on them.

They are both in excellent condition, with no damage, and have been freshly upholstered in a top quality pale green linen fabric, as they were originally except with modern fire safety regulations in mind. The photo showing the chairs from the front was taken in sunlight and best shows the exact colour on our monitor.

About the Creator

Finn Juhl

Born in Denmark in 1912, Finn Juhl studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy in Copenhagen. After graduating, he worked for ten years in the office of Vilhelm Lauritzen, a leading Danish Modernist architect. In 1945, he set up his own practice, specializing in interior and furniture design. Juhl created design forms with the mindset of a sculptor and much of his furniture was technically ahead of its time.

Juhl’s career blossomed through his participation in the annual Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild exhibitions, nationally sponsored events that supported design innovation through collaborations between young architects and traditional cabinetmakers. Juhl found great success in his partnership with craftsman Niels Vodder, and together they created a number of important works, such as the Pelican Chair and the Chieftain Chair.
