admin — Mon, 27 Oct 2025 11:18:05 +0000

The 108 chair was originally designed by Finn Juhl in 1955. At first glance, it may look like any ordinary dining chair. On closer inspection, however, surprising details are revealed, such as the angled side rails and sliding cross rails. These details add unexpected movement and dynamism to the chair’s construction. The chair is available in oak, walnut or black paint finishes, and can be upholstered in fabric or leather. To this day, Finn Juhl’s designs remain unconventional and defy expectations with subtle details. Finn Juhl himself once said that ‘the deviation is in the detail’. This also applies to his 108 chair, which is defined by elegant and subtle details such as angled side rails and sliding crossbars, which add unexpected movement and dynamism to the construction.

Whisky Chair

The Whisky Chair was designed by Finn Juhl in 1948 and is characterized by the designer’s artistic sense of shape, function, and detail. Finn Juhl played a groundbreaking role in the Danish Modern design movement as his sculptural furniture manifested Denmark’s position as a pioneering country within furniture design.

The exclusive chair was originally presented at the Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition in 1948, as part of Finn Juhl’s concept “The Living Room of an Art Collector”, but was not put into production. Finn Juhl always dared to stand alone and was unconcerned about the critics who found his designs too extravagant.

Upon purchase, customers will receive a unique mouth-blown glass crafted by glassmaker Mikkel Yerst. Finn Juhl’s original drawing does not depict the glass, meaning that the chair itself has served as the inspiration for the powerful shape of the specially designed glass.

Finn Juhl is known for adding visual lightness to his designs, and the Nyhavn Desk is no exception. The desk is manufactured in different sizes and available with a veneered table top in teak, oak, walnut, Oregon pine or linoleum in the colours ‘black’ or ‘mushroom’ with matching wooden toes on burnished steel legs. Alternatively, the legs are available in black, orange or light blue. The table can be ordered with a tray unit with three drawers in a warm or cold range of colours. When Finn Juhl established his first studio at the exclusive address of 33 Nyhavn in central Copenhagen in 1945, he designed a very simple desk with burnished steel legs, a detail which came to shape his furniture design during the 1950s. When Finn Juhl moved his studio to 38 Sølvgade in 1957, these same tables were still used.

When Finn Juhl designed the Nyhavn Desk he was inspired by the simplistic designs of his American counterparts, in particular Charles Eames. However, his sense of functionality and detail is what adds real character to this piece.
