About the Item

This impressive mid-century dining set of four is representative of the fundamental axioms of Scandinavian design that revolve around quality and functionality and pairs it with a distinctive design. These chairs belong to Kjærnulf’s so-called “razorblade” designs as they have the characteristic backrests with a shape that is similar to its namesake, a razorblade. Each chair is made of solid oak with a beautiful grain and colour. The style and shape of the frames recall an almost Baroque design, with a strong angular structure featuring straight as well as sculpted curved edges. The design combines this with the organicity of traditional Scandinavian style, and as a result, this set has a visually arresting and individual aesthetic. The stand-out visual appeal is provided by the slender backrests that have the famous razorblade-shape with additional sculpted parts on the top and bottom. The peculiar shapes continue in the curved, wide armrests, ribbed lower seat and the carved front legs that are connected to the back legs with straight stretchers. This latter element shows that while the chairs’ carved and sculpted elements were designed as a form of ornamentation, functionality and structural stability were of equal importance. The details, such as the impeccable joinery and woodworking reveal the high quality craftsmanship of the Danish manufacturer, Nyrup Møbelfabrik. The chairs feature seats upholstered in a light bouclé fabric that complement the beautiful oak’s appealing, warm colour. Furthermore, thanks to their intricate design, these chairs are a perfect match for an understated dining table to create an ideal and impressive dining set. ‎Condition: In good vintage condition.
