Vintage Brutalist Oak Razorblade Green Striped Armchair By H. Kjærnulf, 1960s

Chairish

$1,952

An example of mid-century Danish design, this single Henning Kjærnulf brutalist oak armchair embodies the designer's iconic "razorback" style. Manufactured by EG Møbler in Denmark around the 1960s, this piece shows very good craftsmanship and bold aesthetic vision. The armchair is constructed from solid, patinated oak, showcasing a rich, warm patina and the strength of the material. Its most striking feature is the high, architectural backrest with its signature "razor blade" carved horizontal slats, providing a dramatic and sculptural focal point. The chair's design balances the robust, almost primitive lines of the Brutalist movement with the refined elegance of Danish modernism, incorporating subtly curved arms and elegantly shaped front legs that nod to historical styles like Danish Baroque. This armchair adds a touch of vintage sophistication to a living room, study, or office. It is in very good vintage condition, showing light wear on the wood consistent with its age and history, which only adds to its unique charm. We have cleaned the wood and gave it oil. The upholstery on the seat is useable, though the fabric shows some sign of use, please see photos for reference. NB: As seen in the photos, this armchair can be paired with another sharing the identical structure featuring a different upholstery. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
