DANISH
DINING CHAIRS
 

Danish dining chairs have been substantiating their pre-eminence within global furniture design over the past century. The story of how this comparatively small country in the far reaches of Northern Europe became famous for it’s dining chair designs is little known yet undeniable. Denmark's history of world-leading dining chair design is due to their consistent fusion of aesthetics, functionality and long-lasting craftsmanship. These core components along with the use of sustainable natural woods make Danish dining chairs the icon that they are today.

The proliferation of Denmark's luxury furniture exports came to be the beating heart of it’s economy even to this day. Each dining chair is crafted using a blend of the best contemporary manufacturing techniques along with time-honoured handcraft traditions. High-end dining chair design within Denmark focuses on the design statement of each piece matching it’s quality and also having ample comfort for daily use. It is the additional ergonomic functionality alongside hardwearing aesthetics which has ensured nordic dining chairs’ continued popularity. The native blood woods of Scandinavia have taken contemporary dining design trends by storm. Modern homeowners by and large have come to favour the muted neutrals of European blond woods over the traditional imported teak which dominated mid-century Danish design. Contemporary Scandinavian wooden dining chairs offer flexibility within dining room interiors, the blond oaks, being natural neutrals, can be warmed or cooled using wood oil finishing. Lacquer or traditional oiling enhance the natural grains for added warmth, whilst white pigmented oil, tones the wood, removing yellow hues to achieve a contemporary Danish Modern dining chair aesthetic.

The term 'Scandinavian' refers to all the Nordic nations yet is used most often in reference to Denmark, Sweden & Norway. There is no one Danish dining chair which can epitomise accurately the Scandinavian aesthetic, even Wegner’s wishbone dining chair. Rather, the true Danish Modern chair results from each designer following the principles of simplicity, functionality, craftsmanship and the working of natural materials. The most comfortable Scandinavian dining chairs have historically tended to originate from Denmark due to the historic influence of Danish designer Kaare Klint. Through Klint’s fastidious studies the concept of what we now refer to as ergonomics was conceived; a system of determining the perfect dimensions for a piece of furniture based upon the human body. Explore our full range of stunning Danish style dining chairs all embodying the hallmarks of historic Danish furniture design. The Danish dining room chair will remain an undisputed success due to the fact that each of these chairs embodies the convergence of time-honoured principles of excellence.
