AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fantastic and extraordinary chair by Jørgen Kastholm for Interprofil in a red beechwood shell, chrome steel frame, and gray fabric seat cushion, Germany, 1980s.
It looks beautiful like a work of art and has a sculptural appearance, while its ergonomic design makes it very comfortable to sit on.
Kastholm initially trained as a blacksmith, but soon turned to furniture design. He attended the School of Interior Design (Danish: Skolen For Boligindretning) in Copenhagen, where he studied under Finn Juhl.
While studying at design school, Kastholm met cabinetmaker Preben Fabricius, who became his partner for several years. They both shared a similar approach to furniture design and were never willing to compromise on quality.

Since we deal with vintage furniture, signs of wear are unavoidable and part of the nature of used items. We therefore only point out major flaws and damages with separate pictures. Nevertheless, we always strive to capture the condition of the objects as accurately as possible in good conscience.
The goods are subject to the margin scheme according to § 25a of the UStG, and VAT is not shown on the invoice.
Seller's Story
Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies.
Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt.
To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty.
And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives.
We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy.
We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people.
