Pelican Chair - Gotland Sheepskin Grayish /Oak - Limited Edition

Pelican Chair is an iconic upholstered armchair by House of Finn Juhl. The chair is upholstered by hand in Denmark and the legs are in oak clear oil (neutral) treatment.

Once a year, Finn Juhl's distinctive Pelican chair changes its look and is dressed in sheepskin from the Swedish island of Gotland. When the Pelican armchair is upholstered with sheepskin from Gotland, the expression of the upholstery is defined by nature, which means it will have an original and individual expression that emphasizes the characteristic, animalistic nature of the armchair. The supply of sheepskin from Gotland is seasonal and therefore the Pelican Chair is a limited edition.

Pelican Chair was born in 1940 and presented at the Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition that moved mixed reviews because of its eccentric design. Danish design was renewed thanks to this iconic armchair, starting a real movement of innovation. The body is embraced within this cosy cocoon shaped shell of the armchair. Unique and sculptural, Pelican Chair is a masterpiece that you can still add to your living area or raffinate office, with the new upholstery providing extra softness at touch and beauty.

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.
