In 1953, Finn Juhl designed this simple, unpretentious, yet thoroughly well-designed and visually pleasing chair. The chair is perfectly fit for private homes, hotels, restaurants and conference facilities alike. The Reading Chair is manufactured in oak with a back piece of oak and walnut or in a fully black painted version. The seat is upholstered in either textile or leather. The chair is also available in a version with a veneered seat.

Why we love Finn Juhl
Finn Juhl represents a sculptural and deeply human approach to modern furniture. His work broke away from the strict functionalism of early modernism and introduced a more expressive relationship between form and the body. Chairs feel almost like small architectural landscapes where wood, upholstery, and negative space interact with elegance and intention. We are drawn to the way Finn Juhl’s designs balance craftsmanship with imagination, creating pieces that remain both iconic and remarkably comfortable.
