Skovby #52 Dining Chair

Description:

The Skovby Chair #52 is a masterful example of how classic craftsmanship and modern design can come together to create a truly timeless piece. Designed by Per Haansbæk of Haansbæk Design, the chair draws inspiration from mid-century aesthetics, yet feels distinctly contemporary, making it an ideal choice for both traditional and modern interiors.

Its design is defined by slightly angled legs and a gracefully curved backrest, details that give Chair #52 a light, elegant presence while also ensuring comfort and support. The chair’s silhouette is clean and refined, with subtle retro-inspired touches that lend character without overwhelming the space. This thoughtful balance allows it to work seamlessly around a formal dining table, in an open-plan living space, or even as an accent chair in other areas of the home.

Crafted from premium solid wood, Chair #52 is built to last, reflecting Skovby’s long tradition of Danish craftsmanship. The wood’s natural beauty is highlighted through careful detailing and fine finishing, underscoring its quality and durability.

To suit individual preferences, the seat can be upholstered in luxurious leather or one of Skovby’s curated quality fabrics. This flexibility allows you to tailor the chair to your style, whether you prefer a sleek, modern look or a softer, more textured finish.

With its perfect blend of heritage, innovation, and elegance, the Skovby Chair #52 is more than a dining chair—it’s a design statement that will elevate your home for years to come.
