The 48 Chair is defined by Finn Juhl’s characteristic, sculptural shapes and delicate details. The chair embraces the seated person while rounded surfaces are shaped to fit the gravity of the resting body and its proportions. The organically shaped seat and backrest, upholstered in textile or leather, are raised from the carrying frame in an almost demonstrative manner, visually lifting the seated person and making it appear as if the law of gravity has been defeated. Additionally, the 48 Series is characterised by the use of multiple materials. Today, it is rare to see furniture that employs two different types of wood. This type of contrast has been left almost entirely to Finn Juhl despite the many years that have passed. The 48 Chair is available in oak with armrests and toes in walnut and a version entirely in walnut. The chair is upholstered in either textile or leather.
