byLassen Saxe Chair

Mogens Lassen was perceived as ‘the naughty boy in class, but he aimed for perfection in each design project. His eye for detail, leaving nothing unnoticed, and his will to try out new methods are clearly seen in this characteristic and timeless chair. It is contemporary proof of his habit of pushing the boundaries of materials and what was comme il faut. The seat, manufactured in core leather, truly reaches the limits of how big pieces of leather can be and are enhanced by the molded, yet massive wooden legs. In the middle of the 20th century, this technique was still in its early years. The beautiful fittings work almost like a piece of jewelry on the chair and clearly illustrate how only the finest materials were selected. Mogens Lassen’s Saxe chair is a classic example of aesthetics and functionality enhancing one another.

The Lassen brothers’ archive of architecture and furniture design represents the finest qualities of the Danish design tradition. A collection has been carefully and humbly selected, the furniture designs that were chosen to be reintroduced to the world will hopefully live a long life in the homes of future generations as beacons of the Danish design tradition that has inspired so many design talents.
