Pelican Chair – Press Material – April 2012

Thanks to its organic shape, the Pelican has almost got a human character and therefore become a body in itself. In the Pelican Chair, one human body can find shelter in another. Although initially dismissed as “walrus-like” by his contemporaries, this chair later became an iconic example of his design. It was obvious to Finn Juhl, that furniture needed an artistic sensibility, in order to be both exciting as well as at peace with the surroundings. Modern retro furniture. You can buy new furniture today of a similar design to that sold in the fifties and sixties.
