reading chair with upholstered seat
Design Finn Juhl, 1953
Ash, oak, or walnut, upholstery, brass details
Made in Denmark by House of Finn Juhl
Perfectly suited for private homes, hotels, restaurants, and conference facilities alike, the Reading Chair exemplifies unpretentious elegance.
Finn Juhl designed the Reading Chair as both a dining room chair and as a reading chair. It is designed to be equally comfortable whether you choose to sit facing the front or the back. This might sound both odd and complicated, but thanks to Finn Juhl's genius, the result was a simple, yet thoroughly well-designed and visually pleasing chair.
Manufactured in oak, it features a back piece of oak and walnut or comes in a fully black painted version, as well as an option in light ash wood. The seat can be upholstered in either textile or leather. Additionally, a version of the chair with a veneered seat is also available.

Finn Juhl aimed at a more organic and natural design form without role models or inherited restrictions. He designed by measuring his own body and analyzing how the individual components of the chair should carry the human body.
Finn Juhl’s design universe is a joyful journey of shapes, aesthetics and inspiration. These classic Danish Modern masterpieces are authorized, licensed & manufactured in Denmark with respect for heritage and quality.
