The original natural stuffing was retained and refreshed, providing excellent comfort and authenticity. The solid beechwood frame and block feet are in flawless condition, with tight joinery and no structural issues. This rare 1940s Fritz Hansen lounge chair exemplifies the brand’s luxurious craftsmanship of the wartime period—handcrafted precision, subtle Scandinavian elegance, and timeless form.
