An iconic executive office chair from 1957, the Model 31, designed by Kai Kristiansen for the Danish manufacturer Schou Andersen Møbelfabrik. This piece showcases the best of Scandinavian modernism with its visually light, yet strong construction in rich teak wood. It features a beautifully contoured frame, dynamically curved armrests that flow into the rear legs, and a distinctive sloped backrest. The seat and backrest are upholstered in high-quality black vinyl, providing an elegant contrast to the warm wood grain. Known for its ergonomic refinement, this chair perfectly balances sculptural form and utilitarian comfort, evidenced by its 43 cm seat height. It is noted to be in good vintage condition with minor age-appropriate scrapes on the wood, and the upholstery has been restored. Authenticity is supported by vintage literature references.
