About This Piece

Vintage Design

About the designer. Born in 1920 in Århus, Danish designer Niels Otto Møller's work earned a reputation for consistent excellence in quality and craftsmanship. Møller's dedication to his craft stemmed from his studies as a cabinetmaker which he completed in 1939, followed by further studies at the Århus School of Design. In 1944, Møller founded his own furniture production company, JL Møllers Møbelfabrik, in a small workshop in the centre of his hometown. While overseeing traditional furniture production at his factory, Møller continued to design himself. The No. 1 chair (1946) was the first result. For the rest of his life, Møller's furniture designs would be produced by his own company. Møller's chairs, such as the sculptural No. 55 and No. 71 (both from 1951), strongly represent, through the choice of materials and soft curves, the Scandinavian post-war vision of practical but well made and designed design. In 1952, as the company grew, JL Møllers Møbelfabrik began exporting to Germany and the United States. To keep up with demand, Møller expanded his production facilities. In 1961, he bought a large plot of land in Højbjerg, a town close to his birthplace. There, Møller continued to design dining chairs and armchairs in almost sculpted, organic forms in teak, oak and walnut - all are examples of the post-war Danish modern style. In 1981, JL Møllers Møbelfabrik received Dansk MøbelIndustris Furniture Prize, with special mention for its "ability to combine the best craft traditions with modern furniture production." Niels Otto Møller designed and produced a large number of chairs and his brand became synonymous with good Danish design worldwide. This reputation was bequeathed to his children after his death in 1982. His sons, Jorgen Henrik Møller and Jens Ole Møller, continued the company and it remains in family ownership to this day. These chairs. This great chair, model 79 is one of this manufacturer's most exclusive designs. The entire construction has been refinished and the chair is like new again. The paper cord seat has been completely renewed and is more beautiful than new, in combination with the beautifully drawn and dark wood we have a fantastic chair that belongs to the real design classics, a wonderful jewel for your interior, a worthwhile investment in your home or office.
