Kurt Østervig Sculpted Lounge Chairs for Jason Møbler

Creator: Kurt Østervig (Kurt Ostervig)
Offered by: Danish Modern LA

Description
This stunning pair of Janus lounge chairs, designed by Kurt Østervig for Jason Møbler in the 1950s, is a masterpiece of Danish modern craftsmanship. Crafted from beechwood with a rich walnut stain, these chairs feature an elegantly sculpted frame with beautifully curved armrests and a striking slatted backrest. Expertly refinished, the wood showcases its original warmth and depth, highlighting the chair’s timeless appeal. The fresh reupholstery in an oatmeal-colored tweed fabric enhances both comfort and sophistication, perfectly complementing the natural wood tones.

A fun historical fact: the "Janus" chair was aptly named after the Roman god Janus, who symbolized duality and transitions—much like these chairs, which seamlessly bridge the gap between function and artistry. With its refined form and enduring appeal, this set is a true collector’s piece, embodying the sleek, organic aesthetic of Mid-Century Danish design and making a refined yet practical statement in any modern interior.
