Designed and crafted in Denmark in the early 1960's this elegant armchair is constructed from solid teak with graceful curves and exquisite woodgrains throughout. Featuring new vintage-feeling forest green upholstery this armchair is ideal for collectors and designers alike searching for the perfect office or accent chair.
Torbjørn Afdal was a Norwegian born designer who graduated from the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry in 1946 and spent much of his career with the legendary Bruksbo Tegnekontor, who for three decades were one of Norway’s leading design offices for quality furniture. Among those who purchased Afdal’s designs were First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy and the Japanese Emperor as well as other notable heads of state during the mid-20th century.
