Item Description

A Danish design icon, this AX Armchair—designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen and produced by Fritz Hansen in 1963—beautifully showcases the innovation and craftsmanship that define mid-century Scandinavian furniture. The chair’s sculptural frame is press-shaped in laminated beechwood, giving it its signature flowing silhouette and exceptional structural integrity. The seat retains its original cognac leather upholstery, wonderfully patinated and supple, adding authenticity and warmth to the piece. Its legs reveal a refined detail: a teak core that underscores Fritz Hansen’s mastery of material combinations. Fully marked with the original FH label, this armchair stands as an important and collectible example of Danish modern design. A timeless, elegant classic—both functional and highly collectible.
