Finn Juhl's Reading Chair (1953) embodies the Danish designer's sculptural approach to furniture, where human comfort meets artistic vision. This exquisite seat features an intricate wooden frame crowned by a distinctive backrest designed for reversible seating – equally comfortable whether facing forward or backward. The thoughtful construction reflects Juhl's revolutionary philosophy of designing with the body in mind, creating furniture that feels as exceptional as it appears. Juhl remains one of the founding fathers of Scandinavian modernism, his visionary style still influencing interiors today. Made in Denmark.
  • Designed to be equally comfortable whether you sit facing forward or backward.
  • Distinctive floating backrest creates an elegant architectural statement.
  • Versatile functionality works equally well for dining or reading.

Finn Juhl

When you look at the graceful shapes and sensual curves of Finn Juhl’s work, you may be shocked to realize that he designed these pieces 60 to 70 years ago. A pioneering force in his own country, Finn Juhl is also credited, along with fellow Danes Arne Jacobsen, Hans Wegner, Borge Mogensen and Poul Kjaerholm, with introducing Danish modern to midcentury America.
