An exercise in artistic freedom, the Chieftain Chair reflects Finn Juhl’s fascination with modern art and cultures beyond Denmark. Designed in 1949, its generous proportions, expressive silhouette and unconventional construction reveal a designer guided by intuition rather than the prevailing rules of functionalism.
A singular expression of his belief that furniture could exist somewhere between art and function.
