Svend Skipper “Model 91” Easy Chair, Denmark 1960s
This chair is the most recognisable model of Danish designer and manufacturer, Sven Skipper and a great example of the mid-century design era. Skipper only created commissioned pieces, meaning none of his designs were mass produced.
“Model 91” features a masterfully sculpted teak base and legs. The teak tips “poke out” at the end of the upholstered armrests, which is a very characteristic design element of this model.
The design was created in 1956 and this particular piece was manufactured by Skipper Møbelfabrik in the 1960s. For its resemblance to Hans J. Wegner’s “Papa Bear” chair, this model is often referred to by that name, however, “Model 91” was only made on order. Skipper’s craftsmanship and quality can be observed in every single piece of his.
The fat sides, high back and big ears not only provide for that coveted silhouette but add to the comfort of this chair. The ergonomics of this chair are fantastic and that is not a given in design furniture.
We had this highback armchair professionally reupholstered in a Kvadrat Harald 3 fabric to stay as close as possible to the design quality. The teak base has been re-oiled and is in very good condition.
About Kvadrat Harald 3
The fresh, soft texture of cotton comes into its own in a directionless velvety textile. The intense colors of this matt velor emphasize the silhouette of the covered object, emphasizing its shape and contours. The Harald 3 has a new intense color palette, designed by Raf Simons, such as this deep purple color, number 692. Harald is a durable fabric, extremely suitable for private living environments, but also for projects.
