Inspired by the magnificent wings of the monarch butterfly, Vilhelm Lauritzen's once elusive Monarch Chair (1944) has been revived by Carl Hansen & Søn. Its double-curved solid wood armrests extend outward, like open wings. Its soft upholstery and carefully hand-polished frame create a poetic interplay between integrity of materials and organic form. Elegant brass-capped feet punctuate its curved form. Monarch reflects the impeccable craftsmanship and subtle detailing of Lauritzen's original design, in materials designed to stand the test of time. Made in Denmark.
