In celebration of its 75th anniversary, House of Finn Juhl has launched an exclusive, limited edition in smoked oak and the prestigious house of design has chosen Milan Design Week for the grand unveiling. The much-anticipated chair was unveiled in Copenhagen at the same time.
The special edition of the iconic masterpiece is limited to 366 chairs worldwide - each engraved with individual dates in the special leap year of the anniversary. Because of this, it is possible to choose a personal date of significance, given that date is available.
The inspiration for the limited edition of the chair comes from a unique Finn Juhl watercolour which was recently rediscovered. A hand-dated and numbered edition of this exact drawing will accompany each of the anniversary chairs. Additionally, the Chieftain Chair in smoked oak will come with a new book 'Lost Danish Treasure'. This book, about the chair, has been written by the American architect and author Carl J. D'Silva. The book provides in-depth insights into the Chieftain Chair's history, development, and significance for Danish design.
