Niels O. Møller dining chairs
The set of eight dining chairs, model 83, designed by Niels O. Møller and produced by J.L. Møllers Møbelfabrik in Denmark during the 1970s, is an example of Scandinavian mid-century craftsmanship. The frames are constructed from solid rosewood, a prized material known for its deep color variations and fine grain patterns. The chairs feature a sculpted backrest with an open slatted design, providing ergonomic support while maintaining a light and refined aesthetic. The seats retain their original green leather upholstery, which offers a contrast to the rich tones of the rosewood. The gently curved seat construction ensures comfort, while the seamless joinery and organic lines highlight Møller’s commitment to high-quality craftsmanship. The legs are elegantly tapered, reinforcing the minimal yet sophisticated expression typical of Danish modern furniture.
