This set of six dining chairs was designed by Kai Kristiansen and manufactured by Schou Andersen in Denmark during the Mid-Century Modern era. The design is characterised by its elegant, high-slatted backrests that curve gently to provide ergonomic support, a hallmark of Kristiansen's thoughtful approach to seating.
Constructed from solid teak wood, the frames exhibit a warm, rich brown tone with a natural grain pattern typical of Danish craftsmanship from this period. The seats are upholstered in a textured, woven green textile that complements the organic feel of the wood. The chairs retain their original manufacturer's label underneath the seat, confirming their provenance and origin in Denmark.
The set remains in great overall condition, with the teak frames showing a well-preserved original finish and the upholstery appearing intact and structurally sound. The chairs have been cared for, retaining their structural integrity and aesthetic appeal over the decades.
These chairs are well-suited for a Scandinavian or Mid-Century Modern dining room setting. Their slender profile and natural materials allow them to pair seamlessly with a teak dining table, adding a touch of authentic Danish design history to the interior.
