More information

The model is said to be by the Danish architect Philip Arctander (1916-1994) and was shown in a store called 'Ny Form' in Copenhagen in 1944.
More or less the same model has been produced in somewhat different manner in Sweden and Norway as well as in Denmark.
However, there is still no definite proof of the chair being by Arctander and thus we have decided to attribute them to Philip Arctander.
