Product description
The armchair designed by Søren Ladefoged and produced by SL Møbler in Denmark is a refined example of 1960s Scandinavian design—an era defined by the balance between functionality and form.
This model belongs to a group of high-back lounge chairs with the possibility of changing the position of backrest typical of Ladefoged’s work. Its defining feature is the continuous, flowing line of the armrests extending into the front legs, combined with well-balanced proportions that support a relaxed, natural sitting position. Some versions were designed with adjustable backrests, highlighting their practical and ergonomic qualities .
The structure is crafted from solid teak wood, a hallmark material of Danish modern furniture. Teak offers durability, stability, and a warm tone that ages beautifully over time. The upholstered seat and backrest add comfort while maintaining the visual lightness of the wooden frame .
Stylistically, the chair sits firmly within the mid-century modern and Scandinavian design tradition. There are no unnecessary decorative elements—its form follows function. The organic lines, gently shaped armrests, and thoughtful proportions give the piece a light and elegant presence despite its solid construction. It integrates effortlessly into both contemporary and classic interiors.
In everyday use, the chair reveals its true strength. The backrest provides firm support, while the slightly reclined angle encourages relaxation without compromising posture. The teak frame ensures long-term durability, and its refined silhouette allows it to stand out without overwhelming the space.
Søren Ladefoged was active during the golden era of Danish modernism, focusing on ergonomics and craftsmanship. SL Møbler was a Danish producer known for working with solid wood and maintaining high standards of traditional furniture making.
This is a chair for those who appreciate authentic Danish design—calm, well-crafted, and timeless.
