About the Item

Brutalist razorback armchairs attributed to Danish designer Henning Kjaernulf capture the bold, sculptural spirit of 1960s Scandinavian design. These throne-like oak chairs feature dramatic carved backrests with distinctive notched profiles and gracefully curved cabriole legs. One chair showcases a gray upholstered seat, while the other displays a spirited black, gold, and red striped fabric, offering versatile styling options. Constructed entirely in solid oak, each chair demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship through its hand-carved details and robust joinery. The razorback design creates visual drama with its undulating horizontal slats and pronounced vertical posts crowned with organic cutouts. Substantial armrests extend from the frame, providing both comfort and architectural presence. These chairs exemplify the Brutalist aesthetic's embrace of raw materiality and expressive form. Lightly refinished to preserve their authentic character, these pieces retain well-lived history consistent with age and use. Two chairs available individually, allowing collectors to acquire a matched or contrasting pair.
