Mid century Cognac Leather short back lounge chair by Hans Olsen Danish 1961

The Model 2191 armchair was designed by Hans Olsen in 1961 and made in Denmark by Brdr. Juul Kristensen and features gently rounded wooden arms. In this chair we have the classic combination of fine figured wood and cognac leather that creates a warm and inviting aesthetic that is matched by the comfort of the chair. This is the lower back version, but as you can see from the last two pictures, there is also a higher back version I have available via my other listings on this website too. It’s presented in untouched vintage condition and therefore has wear commensurate with age and use. Overall though this is mostly wear to the seat, as shown, and there are no rips, tears or holes in the leather or major marks to the rosewood frame. The seat pad could of course be restored and that’s a matter of personal taste as many prefer for a vintage item to show it’s age through marks and patina – so I have left well enough alone. Seat height 43 cm
