"Harp" Chair (1st edition)

Manufactured by Christensen & Larsen Mobelhandvaerk, Copenhagen, Denmark, 1963.

It consists of a massive ebonised ash frame with original flag line, imitating a harp shape.

More than just a chair, an Art piece: The "Harp" chair's form was based on a Viking ship's bow section.

The figuration of flag halyards gives the design a powerful optical quality.

In very good original condition

Provenance from a private design collector, Hamburg, Germany.
