Principal Chair

One of the last living mid-century Scandinavian design pioneers and a female pioneer in the field of architecture in her time, Bodil Kjær, conceived her Principal series in 1961 as part of an architectural exploration of interior solutions for modern living, called Elements of Architecture. Comprising a dining table and an upholstered dining chair, the Principal series epitomizes Kjær’s forward-thinking cosmopolitan outlook and modernistic design language that slips fluidly into the contemporary interior. The solid wood dining table boasts a clarified form, repeating a simple angle throughout table legs and ends of the tabletop, while the dining chair with its circular seat and gently rounded backrest, beautifully upholstered, adds a softness to the clear, unfussed geometry, an invitation to linger. Designed in 1961. Handmade in Denmark.
