An outstanding set of six teak dining chairs designed by Niels Koefoed for Koefoeds Hornslet, made in Denmark in the 1960s. These gorgeous ladder back chairs have elegantly tapered backs with subtle bow-tie slats. They are light and graceful but still sturdy and strong. Niels Koefoed’s chairs all have girls’ names; this is the ‘Lis’ model. The chairs are both comfortable and gorgeously detailed, especially the two arm chairs, whose delicate carved and curved arms are connected to the lower rail with amazing joinery.
This set is in truly excellent vintage condition, with gorgeous patina and grain. The original “skai” (naugahyde) upholstery is in great shape.
