Pair of Bernt Petersen "Rag Chairs" in Douglas Fir (for reupholstering)

A stunning pair of iconic "Rag Chairs" (Model 120), designed in 1969 by the renowned Danish architect Bernt Petersen. Known for their architectural simplicity and "honest" joinery, these chairs are a staple of Scandinavian modernism.


The Highlights

• Premium Material: These frames are crafted from solid Douglas fir, featuring a beautiful, straight grain and a warm, honey-toned patina that only comes with age.

• Excellent Structural Condition: The timber frames are in great condition; sturdy, well-maintained, and free of significant damage.

• A Designer Canvas: While the frames are excellent, the upholstery requires replacement. This presents a perfect opportunity for the new owner to customize these pieces with high-end linen, shearling, or a contemporary "rag" weave to suit their specific interior.

Note to Buyers: These chairs are a favorite among interior designers for their low-profile silhouette and "deconstructed" look. They offer a rare blend of high-design pedigree and casual comfort.
