The Mr. Olsen Lounge Chair is a classic, sophisticated armchair designed in the 1950s by the highly acclaimed Danish architect, Hans Olsen. The design is both slender and organic with a lightness that is unusual by comparison with other design classics of the period.
Mr. Olsen’s special elegance derives particularly from the soft shapes of the chair’s armrests and the round, tapered legs. The chair is available both in a classic leather version and a fully upholstered version in beautiful fabrics, including sophisticated velour for a more daring look.
