elizabeth lounge chair
Design Ib Kofod-Larsen, 1956
Solid oak or walnut, upholstery
Made by Audo
Arguably Ib Kofod-Larsen's most iconic design, the U-56 chair was designed in 1956. The carefully crafted piece later became known as the Elizabeth Chair after Queen Elizabeth II purchased a pair during a visit to Copenhagen in 1962. Its gently curved armrests, sledge-like frame and reclining comfort make it an outstanding example of Danish Modern furniture design. Optional ottoman is also available.
Ib Kofod-Larsen is the epitome of Danish Modern. His furniture creations sit in the tension field between art and design. Although they have clear references to the mid-century period, they proffer a contemporary aesthetic that makes it difficult to decode whether they were designed then or now. Defined by a simplicity and straightforwardness that belies their complex craft and thoughtful details, Kofod-Larsen's elegant designs are rare examples of Danish furniture at its finest.
