This rare model 39 armchair was designed by Kai Lyngfeldt Larsen for the Danish manufacturer S\u00f8ren Willadsen during the 1960s. The armchair is distinguished by its low profile and distinctive, almost architectural design. It features distinctive armrests and a gently sloping backrest, giving it a subtly sculptural character. The simple frame is crafted from solid wood. The frame is upholstered in cognac-colored genuine leather. This model features two loosely draped leather cushions with a natural and original patina.<\/p>\n
Kai Lyngfeldt Larsen was a distinguished Danish furniture designer whose work is defined by the combination of functional elegance and the highest quality natural materials. His designs are characterized by organic forms that harmoniously complement the solid construction. Although he is most associated with the S\u00f8ren Willadsen manufacturer, he also designed for brands such as S\u00f8borg M\u00f8belfabrik (e.g., the famous Model 501 armchair) and Bovirke (the Safari model).<\/p>\n
S\u00f8ren Willadsen was founded in 1904 by master carpenter S\u00f8ren Willadsen. Initially a small workshop, he began larger-scale production in 1912. In the 1930s and 1940s, the manufacturer established collaborations with design icons such as Finn Juhl, Nanna and J\u00f8rgen Ditzel, and Illum Wikkels\u00f8. Willadsen was known for his uncompromising approach to quality. The founder himself joked that if, as a young carpenter, he had attempted to create furniture as innovative as those designed by Finn Juhl, he would have been locked up, which underscored the avant-garde nature of the production. The brand’s legacy is so strong that a 2025 relaunch of the iconic Willadsen Series (originally SW 50), designed by Finn Juhl, was announced.<\/p>\n
The armchair is in original vintage condition. The leather shows numerous signs of age, including pigment changes, abrasions, scrapes and natural patina. The seat height is 44 cm. We have a total of three pieces of this model. The remaining two pieces are available in separate offers. Together, they create a beautiful set, as shown in the photos.<\/p>\n
