Iconic, the Chieftain armchair is one of Finn Juhl’s masterpieces, representing the pinnacle of his career as a designer. When it was presented in 1949, the armchair marked a revival in the tradition of Danish furniture. Today, he is regarded as one of the most important representatives of the Danish Modern movement in the United States in the 1950s. For this reason, Finn Juhl is often regarded as one of the fathers of modern Danish design.Inspired by modern art and foreign cultures, the Chieftain armchair, with its organic forms, breaks free from traditional Danish design and strict functionalism in both form, execution and materials.Refined and timeless, the Chieftain armchair is available in walnut or oak and upholstered in high-quality leather.
