Chair #15



SNAKE CHAIR
—Designed by Poul Henningsen

Another great DANE! Who knew they were so cutting-edge-cool back in 1931 Denmark when this rare Snake Chair was made? This prototype chair had chromium plated tubular steel, and the real deal had laminated wood on the seat. The back of the chair was covered in oilcloth. In Europe after WW1, people lived in small apartments and furnished them simply, like with this very cool, twisted chair. Pass the curly fries.
