About the Item
Initially introduced back in 1938, Little Petra won instant praise at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers Guild Exhibition, subsequently winning awards at exhibits in New York and Berlin. It’s one of just a few designs by architect Viggo Boesen, who became associated with Denmark’s signature design aesthetic in the 1930s called funkis style.
Little Petra is surprisingly petite, able to fit into all kinds of spaces, interiors and environments. Low to the ground, open and embracing, it embodies the essence of a lounge chair, allowing for all kinds of seating positions in any cosy setting imaginable.
Disclaimer: The primary listing photo is a digital rendering, the purpose of this visual is to represent the appearance of the Scandinavian Grey 22 Sheepskin (17mm ) on the Petra Lounge Chair and Pouf. The actual physical piece will be made to order.
Slight variations in color or texture are inherent to natural materials.
Material:
Sheepskin 17 mm MTO (Made to Order) Color : Scandinavian Grey - 22 Curly 17mm/ Skandilock
Oiled Oak
As with most natural materials, differences in structure, density and thickness are expected, as two pieces of sheepskin never look identical and tend to show natural variations in both curls and tones.
Dimensions:
Little Petra lounge chair : H: 75cm/29.5in, D: 83cm/32.7in, L: 81cm/31.9in , Seat h: 40cm /15.7in, Seating d: 55cm/21.6in
DESIGNER
Viggo Boesen
Viggo Boesen is a relatively little known architect who contributed to Denmark’s signature design aesthetic in the 1930s. In particular, his work reflected Scandinavian ‘Funkis’ style, a Nordic take on Art Deco. In contrast to massproduced materials and the less-is-more approach from the Bauhaus school of thought, Boesen brought a soft, warm and almost naive aspect to design, ushering in new forms of upholstered furniture.
Only a few of his designs were ever produced, yet Boesen’s original ideas, organic shapes and expressive design lingo were precursors to Denmark’s subsequent stance on modernism in the decades that followed.
Little Petra is one of just a few designs by architect Viggo Boesen, who became associated with Denmark’s signature design aesthetic in the 1930s called funkis style. Distinguished by a softer, more abundant, organic aesthetic that challenged the minimalistic approach of Bauhaus.
