Oak and textile

This safari style folding chair, designed by Mogens Lassen, features a white-painted wooden frame with an exposed oak footrest. The back and armrests in white canvas create a sense of relaxed comfort. The chair was conceived by Lassen in 1928 for his friend, the landscape architect Troels Erstad, who designed the garden on Lassen's rooftop.
