post armchair
by Cecilie Manz from Fredericia
post armchair
Design Borge Mogensen, 1956
Solid beech or oak wood
Made in Denmark by Fredericia
"Some of my projects remain experiments or sculptured ideas, others are made more concrete and turn into functional tools." -Cecilie Manz
The Post Collection is an example of eliminating anything extra in order to solely focus on the essential. For designer Cecilie Manz, creating is about examining the purpose of a piece of furniture. Stripping the concept down to only what's necessary, the form emerges from the function in an expression that's pure and purposeful.
It's this simplicity imbued with a sense of beauty that is at the core of the Post Collection from Manz. The name is a nod to the former home of the Royal Mail, renovated into Fredericia's flagship showroom in Copenhagen. Clean, uncluttered lines are the signature traits of the Post Table and Post Chair, each boasting a solid wood frame that reflects Fredericia's heritage of wood craftsmanship and appreciation for authentic materials.
The Post Collection reflects a shared passion for a clean, crisp, uncluttered aesthetic, where each piece involves beautifully crafted wood in proportions that naturally suit the human body. With its upright stance and solid wood frame, the Post Chair embodies the principles of simplicity that drive designer Cecilie Manz. Cleverly constructed with a minimal use of space for the arms yet a comfortably wide seat, the Post Chair looks clean and crisp. A welcome addition to any restaurant, hotel, private home or corporate setting, it features a plywood seat and back to add subtlety. Also available with an upholstered seat version in leather or fabric (please call to specify upholstered version). The perfect partner to the Post armchair is the Post Table, featuring a long rectangular table top and matching cylindrical legs.
