Description
This pair of armchairs, based on a design by Niels Otto Møller, was manufactured by J. L. Møller. Model 78 combines a rosewood frame with upholstered, newly reupholstered seats. The dark wood grain creates a striking contrast with the light upholstery.
The slender legs taper towards the bottom and transition into softly shaped frame elements. Three horizontal slats divide the open backrests. Their gently curved lines echo the contours of the upright supports. According to the available information, the design dates from after 1951; the year of manufacture for the two armchairs is not specified. The Model 78a stool by Niels Otto Møller complements them.
