Chieftain Chair

Chieftain Chair is an iconic Finn Juhl chair designed in 1949 and reproduced in 2002 by House of Finn Juhl.

The Chieftain Chair is a modern award-winning Danish design project recognized as iconic for over 50 years. The inspiration for this Finn Juhl chair comes from the will to make an important, generous and inimitable seat. Finn Juhl is one of the most important members of the modern Danish movement in the United States during the 1950s, and this is clearly visible in this work. The originality in separating the backrest from the seat highlights the beauty of the wooden frame, taking up the beauty and volumes of the previous Chair 45, this time paying attention to the large armrests that make this seat even more comfortable and elegant. Rich in class details, it is available in walnut or oak wood texture, Sorensen leather finish.

Designed by Finn Juhl

Finn Juhl (1912- 1989) architect and interior and industrial designer, is considered one of the fathers of Danish design. In 1931 he studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He opened his studio in Copenhagen in 1945 where he began to design his first pieces of furniture using precious materials such as wood and leather. Finn Juhl, far from the Danish purist design of the time, was inspired by a modern and functional design and his passion for distant cultures, such as the African or Egyptian one. Accompanying his projects was the cabinetmaker Niels Vodder who translated Juhl's drawings into products with complex and sophisticated shapes. Among the most famous realizations we remember the Grasshopper seat, the Pelican armchair and the iconic Chieftain Chair.
